Sonex. $26,000, sonexaircraft.com amateur-built, 150MPH, LSA-qualified


Max airspeed for LSA is 138mph.



With a climb prop, it would be easy to keep one of the 4 cylinder Sonexes
under that speed. The question is whether the Sonex has enough interior room
for two people and how many people would be comfortable with the climb
performance of a Sonex with two aboard.

I know three Sonex owners or ex-owners. The guy with the 6 cylinder engine
has a good flying airplane, but it doesn't meet the performance claims. The
guys with 4 cylinder engines won't come out and say they are disappointed
with the performance, but their body language, tone, etc tells the tale.
