Yes, compared to a Wilga.

Wilga

This thread, and the ugly thread, have been driving me bonkers. Nobody
posts links.


Agreed on the Wilga, also to the ugly list:
Any of the Aerocats http://www.creativeflight.com
Barr 6 http://www.barraircraft.com (Looks like a pregnant Skylane)
There are numerous ugly ultralights...

In the beauty catagory:
I would take a Four Winds over a Cardinal http://www.fourwindsaircraft.com
A 6 place version of this http://www.mini-imp.com
or better yet this http://www.sgaviation.com

I'd also add most of the new generation canards...

Nah, the Four Winds has too low of a "beltline" and the tail looks
oversized. I much prefer the Stallion.

I remember when it was featured in the mag, still not many flying,
especially with the Barr 6...

I wanted to add but forgot, of course if I owned any of the "ugly"ies,
they'd be the most beautiful thing... ;-)

Phunnie how ownership changes ones point of veiw...
