What sort of UL/LSA do I want?

by Michael <usenetreplies@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Feb 25, 2008 at 11:34 AM

I have finally reached the point where I can reasonably acquire a
purely-for-fun, low-and-slow kind of flying machine.  It's not going
to be my only one - I own a Twin Comanche that I use for travel.  Thus
I don't care how slow it is - I'm never going very far in it.  I would
like it to be two seats, to be something that can comfortably operate
from a 1000 ft grass strip, and something with a relatively narrow
wingspan or folding wings or some such - it will live in a pole barn,
and the doors are not wide enough to accomodate anything more than
about 18 ft.  Also I have no intention of buying new or building -
this must be something that I can acquire for under $20K in good
flying condition  and with plenty of life left in it (not a project).
Also no certified aircraft of any sort need apply - homebuilt or e-LSA
only.  It also can't be something that requires a crew of any sort -
it needs to be something I can easily pull out and launch myself.  No
balloons, no gliders.  Also nothing foot launched - it's not so much
the foot launching but the foot landing I can't take.

Now, having said that - I'm otherwise flexible.  Powered parachute?
Trike?  Three axis?  Gyroplane?  Any of the above would work for me.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Michael
