My LS1-d farts in your general direction!

Don't think an LS1 can keep up? *Check out Sam Giltner's successes in

Immaculately prepared, true. *Superb pilot, very true. *LS1 old?
Yes. *Beastly? *No.

By the way, the 301 Libelles are older than the LS1's.

LOL Ray! Too funny!


Noel,

I have an LS1f. Don't discount this particular ship. It's a joy to
fly, very easy to rig, and certainly fits your criteria. It's very
similar to the LS4 in both looks and handling, but with a little less
L/D at 38:1. Besides the one on wings and wheels, I know of two others
that are available. Let me know if you want details.
