Perhaps someone will know...
Why hasn't the Ercoupe design been repackaged as a kit or LSA? It
seems to be the ideal design for the casual weekend flier (with or
without rudder pedals).
Side by side, sips fuel, low gross weight, proven design, etc.
I'm not interested in buying one (see "slow") but the few people I
know who own or have flown them have nothing but praise for the
design
given its mission.

There was a group working on a modernized composite kit version.
Don't know if they are still at it or not. Here's a link...

the real question is; will they build it for me then let me put on the
decals so I can say I built it?
