    I've seen a few up close at an event for home-build aircraft, it's a good looking model IMHO.

    I knew I had a few photos lying around somewhere of the CSA version:









    Nice looking aircraft and I'm sure the Alabeo model will be worth waiting for, however if you want one now, you could consider the Just Flight offering which is on sale for a mere €7/9.50USD/6GBP now..:

    Piper WAS going to produce this as their LSA under the moniker "Piper Sport" and they delivered several orders, but shortly after the agreement broke down and both companies elected to mutually terminate the relationship. I take it they could not agree on their business strategy.

    Aircraft itself got high marks.
    Basic Flying Rules: "Try to stay in the middle of the air. Do not go near the edges of it. The edges of the air can be recognized by the appearance of ground, buildings, sea, trees and interstellar space. It is much more difficult to fly there."
