Why not LSA? Marc, that's a good question. I think that by the time you develop an aircraft that meets the LSA requirements, the extra effort to go to Part 23 TC is not all that great. And the benefits are much greater gross weight and no smoke-and-mirrors VNE. But I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks, Bob K.

Thanks, Bob K. there are export advantages to not being LSA...as Cessna has learned with the Skycatcher, with which they are pursuing Primary category certification so it can get certified overseas. Yes I expect you to be supplying the european market with trainers in 10 years  This will be the HP-48???
