Lancair "record"? I would think that - by now - it would be obvious
that what is needed is a safer "Lancair." We all know that Lancairs
are neat planes, but they are also very hot to fly, with virtually
no allowable margin for error. One only has to look at the
statistics and the independent research to know it is an issue with
the plane. In fairness, this is not unique to Lancairs...
Rienk,
In all "fairness" the statistics and independent research do not support
your claim that the Lancair safety record is related to aircraft issues. Quite
the contrary. The pilots are about 80% of the problem-- and I have done the
independent analysis. The airplanes are high performance aircraft, just like the
one you are developing, and take skills beyond the average private pilot
level.
