    For a brand new plane that’s nice. Especially for a new pilot.

    Remember the speeds and number of seats and all are limited due to this being a LSA aircraft. For good specs you need to get a private pilots license and fly more capable planes.

    Nice plane, still bit pricey for flight school. Still get 172 or 162 for less. Maybe replace rotax with chinese rotax or better viking engine reduce cost by 20K easy.

    The word "Cheap" when used in referring to anything aviation is just fantasy. In the case of this aircraft, the Skyleader 400, $130K seems to be a good bang for the buck - but NOT "cheap".

    • @damianketcham
      @damianketcham Месяц назад +2

    ok interesting but it's a shame that a lot of LSA makers don't bother keeping up with the times and making 915 versions. Only the greedy producers to that and end with 3-400k price tags.
    Has the audio been AI processed? it muffles the speech so might not be worth it.

      It is when you compare it to a new Cessna 172 with similar avionics. The base model 172 is
      $400,000. A well equipped 172 is around 800 to 900k.
