    check out "big rocks and long props" most wont fit onto LSA though. There are many stol planes available, Zenith, Savannah, Kitfox (which was the original design by Dan Denney) Hornet, Bushbaby, Bushcaddy, CubCrafters, Foxbat the list goes on, it depends what you want to do with it and how much you want to spend. Remember what you gain at one end of the envelope you generally loose at the other.

    Cheers Steve. Am aware of most of those. In your opinion if I asked you to rank light bush planes that are two person side by side seating with performance similar or better than a highlander ie 100m grass strips, from cheapest up to say the highlander, how might that list go??

    Mmm I'd never heard of that one either. It seems very similar except for longerons. I want really good STOL so I'll keep reading.

    Yea Aucklanders are a bit weird like Some characters you find in Sydney. Except my mate Dan! Queensland don't get me started. Outback WA my favourite!
