Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: Skycatcher news

The 13 fuel sumps for one so the lawyers can't possibly prove that the
pilot checked all of them for water. The fuel injected engine that
refuses to start when hot to prevent law suits from pilots who don't
know how to identify and resolve carburetor ice. The giant super heavy
seats that won't bend so you can reach anything in the back that you
might need in flight but presumably prevent wiplash lawsuits for
another. I could go on. They've added so much lawyer proofing on their
current 172 that its so heavy as to be a two person bird.
