Kits are not available yet in the US as they have not been approved under
the 51% rule.
Also the factory is not to keen on selling kits as they have a PERFECT
safety record
with over 115 sold world wide because all have been factory built, to date,
where they
can maintain quality control.

According to website, they have kit version.
What do you mean that it is not available?

Look at the Atec Zephyr. www.AtecAviation.com
It looks exactly like a Katana but the performance figures are much

better
and the endurance and fuel consumption are great.
It is not available yet as a kit, only as a completed aircraft, but

should
qualify for the proposed LSA. The first 3 to be imported to the US are
almost ready for delivery.

Hi All,

I've scoured the web and magazines looking for a kitplane (that's
available in the U.S.) that has the flying characteristics, AND
cockpit visibility equal to or better than the Diamond DA-20 C1. For
those of you that may not know, the C1 is equipped with a fuel
injected 125 hp conti. The characteristics are low fuel burn, 135kt
cruise, gentle mush/stall at 37 kts with flaps, and VERY fun to fly.

Anyone?
