Thought you all might enjoy this report from Sebring posted by "Gort" on a Sportcruiser Yahoo list:
| Quote: | "Once you see a White Lightning in person...and 166JG awaits here in
all its glory...if you are objective you will know that the SC is no
longer the best looking LSA on the market. JG is so wide and sleek
with a tapered Lancair-like tail it screams speed and indeed will
likely produce 150 knots with only a prop change in nonLSA livery.
The baggage area appears twice as large and three times as usable as
SC (OK – no wing lockers). The SC appearance really suffers from the
necessity of having a high cowl to accomodate the gearbox. Not as
much as the brand new Gobosh (708GB, 8548U, czech/polish same price
for composite or metal low wing with big swept up tips) or Tecnam but
that low flat 3300 is responsible for half the "looks" triumph for
the Lightning. Just comparing the nosewheel fairing design,
aerodynamics, and apparent strength between SC and this gave me a sad
sick feeling. I guess SC is still the better value but this has
suddenly become a very tough call."
