Oh! how my heart aches every time I see one of these babies in a magazine or on T.V. But wow at only (only...heh!) $139,000 what a steal! Seriously, I think Popular Science is mocking me with the amount of articles on this plane.
I like the cockpit, it looks like the interior of a car.

...someday maybe.:cool:

A real beauty of a bird... Thats for sure.

One of the things that have really lacked in GA aircraft the past couple of decades (ok, maybe 5 decades) is a cool interior. Only the Trinidad and Cirrus have had some really nice interiors.

But... this girl is a looker! I hope they are successful on launching her.

Looks like something Bond, James Bond, would have. Me too. :costumes:

I think it's a cool plane too! I'm working on an FS version, using FSDS. Lots of work to do, but here's where I am so far:

1. Flight model nearly perfect, including water operations.
2. Visual model nearly complete, screenshot below.

I'll try to post a link to a video later.

I am SO glad someone is making a FS version of this plane... it is too cool. It's probably the only way I'll ever be able to fly one.

THANK YOU bigglesworth... I can't wait ! ! ! :applause: :applause: :applause:

They are awesome planes.. Love that interior most of all. The folding wings are second highest on my 'likes' of this plane.

With folding wings, you can just about store it in a garage, trailer, etc. Makes it really really nice for winter storage, costs, etc.

I hope they are very very successful on this plane and that its safe and reliable for people..
