Default What would you buy with a 50k budget?

I agree, the speed would be an issue. I've alway wondered if you could
upgrade the engine for speed. If you look at the Zenith 640 kit, it's a 4
seater that has a cruise of 150 but they pride themselves on using the
exact same airframe as the ch2000. Does that mean you should be able to
get 150 out of the CH2000?


Good question...it'd take an STC, since the Alarus is a Part 23 airplane,
but if the airframe is the same, it should work, at least that far.
