The good news here is similar to Cirrus' entry (then exit) to the SLSA niche. More rotax qualified service centers.

The buzz in Europe is that Piper has become a 49% owner of light aircraft manufacturer Czech Sport Aircraft (CSA), the successor to the bankrupt Czech Aircraft Works. CSA is owned by Slovak investment group Slavia Capital. Neither side has revealed the purchase price, but local business daily Hospodárské noviny has put it at around $30 million.

    The good news is: if it's a Rotax that will help us out. If Piper does get in the LSA business that will help the category out. A win win but makes the competition a little more as well! I learned in a Piper BUT I love my CT!!!

    Another Rxxxx dealer out. check out http://gatewaysportaviation.com/
    I've been a dealer since 2005, now looking for another airplane. Obviously, I've always seen the CT as THE competition.
