When I think back over Lance’s career, I can’t
possibly imagine him spending any time on a light sport.
The new aircraft will be beautiful, sexy, two comfortable seats
(no excessive lean-back, feet below the butt, a little elbow room),
pressurized, an advanced wing with leading edge devices and fowler flaps to
lower stall speed to 61 kts, and one of the new Rolls Royce 300+ hp turbines in
the front. It will be the Spartan Executive of the next decade.

Rob,
You actually think Lance can design a "slow" light sport
airplane? hee hee
hee. I think he only has speed in the blood. I think if anyone can
build the
sexiest LSA on the planet, it would be Lance.
I agree that he should also bring back the 320 and I think the 320 with
Legacy gear and the Legacy canopy style would be best. I like the
oleos for
the mains and the 2 doors instead of the 3 like they use with the outback gear
option.
Whatever he does, it IS on an airport so we can only hope it has
something to
do with airplanes and I for one will be like a kid on Christmas Eve - I can't
wait!!
Great to have some good news and something to look forward to and
something
to hope for. This is going to be a great year!
Matt
