I agree. I started flying ULs in the mid 80s. There were a wide variety of types flying. Several promising new designs went down the tubes during this time. These planes sold complete for less than the engines do now. I still have a soft spot for these early planes and still own a 1983 Starflight DBL. Roger P

And this is quite a shove back to the UL days that will never be again. Just an example of what has happened, but like the man says, should have been done 10 years ago. Too late now for complaining about it, but thought it was interesting enough to those of us who came into aviation through the UL route and eventually then to Sport Pilot.
