FlyingMonkey Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 That looks like the "Lite" version or whatever the 2006 designation was. It should have a pretty attractive useful load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S3flyer Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Very tempting. I might be interested in buying 50 percent if someone else in the Atlanta area wants to buy the other 50 percent. I believe there is a member with the username of MovingOn on SPT.com in the Atlanta area that was looking for a partnership at one point. You might PM him to check for interest.

Ed Cesnalis Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 The binnacle is 2005 style. What about the tail and trim? Does it have a 2005 style tail? How many axis trim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FastEddieB Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 All very desirable... Seriously, a 50% share might be just what you've been looking for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they made a few lower priced ones with that style in 06-07. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Baker Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 100Ham, take a look at the original post, it does have an autopilot. In fact I had the same autopilot in one of my CT's, and it was really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingMonkey Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Nobody with a CTSW has an "open sore" over useful load...they are all excellent in this regard. Only the latest CT owners have a reason to be "sore" about load... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WmInce Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Just in case anybody missed it, on the average, a CTSW has an 80 lbs. advantage over the newest CTLSi. In other words, it can carry 80 lbs. more usable payload. 80 lbs. = 13.28 gal. fuel. Just in case anybody missed it. . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dick993tt Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 This is a great little plane...I know because I have been flying it. .And if you don't think it will scoot, put 70 degrees F, 111 Knots and 8500 feet in your E6B and calculate true airspeed (second picture).

IrishAl Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 These instrument panels are still used in new aircraft here in Europe. Many CTs are limited to a gross wt. of 472.5kg and I suppose this binnacle is lighter. See http://flightplanet.com/single-engine-piston-aircraft-for-sale/flight-design/ct__3887.php This is effectively a CTSW - CTLS hybrid, with the earlier CTSW binnacle, CTSW body and CTLS landing gear. It's called CT Supralight or CTSL, This particular model has a VP prop with a 80hp engine - note the claimed performance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Meade Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 IrishAl, are there any European forums or websites for Flight Design? I'd be interested in learning more from pilots and from dealers about some of the options listed in the airplane you linked to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be interested in learning more from pilots and from dealers about some of the options listed in the airplane you linked to. Not that I know of..., Here in Europe we have the problem of differing languages and barriers which only serves to divide what is a small community to begin with, so it can be difficult to attain critical mass for a lively forum. Are you saying this particular plane that is advertised as a CTSW is not actually a CTSW, it's a CTSL? Sorry, Sportpilot - I've sort of pulled things in a different direction. I was simply commenting on the instrument panel - that it wasn't obsolete. We have a microlight class here in the UK (and a similar one in Europe) limited to 472,5kgs MAUW, so empty weight is critical. This CTSL has CTLS landing gear and winglets on a CTSW body (for lightness). It's not available in the USA but I thought some CT owners would be interested....

Anticept Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 Make sure you cover it up completely, especially the prop. Bruce's aircraft covers offer CT type covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Lee Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 The Neuform prop will develop longitudinal cracks, the lights will haze over and if water gets into some areas where it can't drain very well you may get some delamination in that area. The tail section is the most vulnerable. They really weren't built for being outside 24/7. There are a couple of people that have and do do this, but there is a price to pay.
