Tracy, the news about Powersport is sad (if confirmed)
but doesn't surprize me a bit.  One can not have their
product fly for less than a couple hundred hours and
charge $6,500 for an unproven PSRU.  I talked to them
a couple times the last couple years about "cutting me
a deal" and I would have my Long EZ parked right next
to their RV at OSH.  They said they can't afford it. 
I was thinking they can't afford not to!  I just sent
$2,950 to Canada for a Marcotte.  Both you and
Marcotte make a fine product at a reasonable prise. 
Isn't that the name of the game?    See you at LAL!
