So, what I am looking for is suggestions for a good choice for a plans
built LSA, preferably wood (I've already got the tools) but I'm not
absolutely set on that factor. Since this would be the first of two
planes, it needs to be as low cost as possible (Aviation Induced
Divorce Syndrome, you know.) I want something more substancial than
an ultralight - preferably an enclosed cabin. A kit probably isn't an
option, as I'm hoping to pay for it by spreading small costs out over
time rather than putting big lumps on the credit card (excluding the
engine, of course).


Fly Baby, of course...assuming they ever start selling plans again. Too
big for a VW, but in some quarters, this is considered a plus. :-)

Ron,

I would qualify yours as a "predictable" response. LOL!

From the looks of it, this would have to be kept at an airport (not
trailerable) and what's the ballpark figure for an A-65?

This looks like a wonderful plane, perhaps on the high end of what I'm
searching for. I'm only about 5'7", and weigh about 200 lbs (really,
I've got wide shoulders!) so this plane looks might be a tad big for
my needs, but it's definitely worthy of consideration. Looks like
there are a lot of them out there. Is it really that cheap to
maintain?
