What is the status on cheaper aircraft for the Sports pilot?

A lot of us can not afford the $100K+ aircraft. Even Taylor is a bit too
expensive at $54K. When can we expect to see something in the $15 to 25K
range?


Pigs will fly first. As others have mentioned that amount of money will
barely buy you a car, and they are working off of astounding economies of
scale.

What you may have to look forward to will be the used sportplanes that cost
50-100k new. Assuming production keeps ramping up, used light-sport planes
will decline in resale valu steadily, just like boats. A 5-year old T-craft
should sell for a lot closer to your price point, and will be far fresher
than a 1957 Cessna or 70's C-150.
