Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: lease back

And who are they going to loose sales to exactly?
The 70 pounds heavier LSA engine from Continental 0-200D which needs a top end at halfway mark as almost a given?
I wish there was some real competition for Rotax 912ULS but there really isn't. They have a huge market share in LSA and by that I mean to include Europe and the rest of the world flying light aircraft not just myopic US view.
