Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: Story from EAA's E-Hotline

Bob, the only one of these planes that you mentioned that was certified a SLSA is the CGS Hawk. Quad City decided not to persue the SLSA market and is still selling experimental airplanes. At least they aren't pretending to be ultralights anymoer ;)

 

But if you really want an "affordable entry level" airplane then please go to the CGS website and order one of thier SLSA Hawks for one-third the cost of the Piper or Cessna or Tecnam that we've seen talked about here. http://www.cgsaviation.com/

 

Made in America by American workers, but using an Austrian engine (that's OK, isn't it?)

There are only a few Light Sport Products made in the U.S.  Quad City's Challenger and CGS Hawk are two good products.  And priced 10s of thousands of dollar - below those foreign made products. 

 

Yes, they are nice planes.  But, not what Light Sport was intended to be: affordable entry level flying.
