C,

I suppose the NTSB site would be worth investigating.


IIRC, you'd find zero fatal accidents. Zero, zip, nada. Same for the
DA20. Pretty impressive.


Actually, there is one fatal for the DA 20.


That was a DA20 Katana with the Rotax engine. I fly out of Leesburg,
and based on informal discussions there and when I was taking
ultralight lessons, it seems that the Rotax has a tendency to carb ice
easily. That might be the unexplained reason.

I fly a DA20 Eclipse (rent), it has a Continental and is very nice,
albeit a little snug for 6' 3" pilot.
