We got to crawl in about an hour later. It’s tight when you turn right into the cabin, but once you sit down it’s comfortable. Turning left, it’s easy to get in the pilot seats. And the Garmin Flight Deck is very clean. I really liked the layout.

Yes, kinda awkward to get into right seat but fine once you get seated. What I noticed most is how quite they are with the engines mounted on the wings

Not in a good way. But it's a Honda, it'll never need parts or service.

I would have liked the pylon idea better if the wing were on top of the engines.

George Real people say GM's are more reliable. Real people never lie.

This might be the only aircraft GM ever designed: Attachment: 1280px-P75A_Eagle.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher_P-75_EagleIt was definitely a parts bin aircraft using bits of P-40, A-24, F4U, P-39, etc. Never made it into volume production. Fits very well with the "ugly don't fly well" theory. Mike C.
