“Convertible” LSA Offered

Warner Aerocraft is offering a unique concept in Light Sport Aircraft design with a three-way convertible cockpit. The Sportster can be flown single or tandem with or without a canopy. The company says it only takes five minutes to reconfigure the plane. It's powered by a Continental 0200 and has a top speed of 130 mph. It has a fabric fuselage and metal wings.

The aircraft has a useful load of 504 lbs. and carries 14 gallons of useable fuel, with an option to double that amount. The company says it's a good training aircraft but it also boasts load limits of +6 and -4. The aircraft has been offered as a homebuilt for 10 years and while an LSA kit is in the works, the company is focusing on manufacturing the aircraft under the LSA category for the moment.
