Default Dream Airplane poll

I read the Kitplanes discussion and thought that a poll of this group
would be interesting and more relevant. Perhaps in response to two
questions;

What airplane do you own?

What dream airplane would you like to build and/or own?

My vote on both questions is the correct choice, of course.

The Bowers Flybaby. Which, you all will surely agree, would win any
poll of well educated homebuilt airplane enthusiasts as the ultimate
dream plane.

Seems like you would not get much use in the winter, where you live.

The Canadians seem pretty ingenious at adding canopies to Fly Babies:
