I guess there's better planes, but for back to the basics and cost effectiveness, the Vision is the way to go. The reason I'm doing the single is to get the Vision into the Light Sport category due here in Australia in September. I hold a PPL but I'm hoping the Light Sport Cat. is less bureaucratic, So the lighter the engine is the better chance I have of doing that. I will also need things like a Carbon spar etc. If you need any advice on the Vision just ask. If people ask me what a Vision is I tell them it's like a RV but in plastic. They all seem to know what a RV is. George (down under) > Hi George > > Nice to hear from you.
