I also quite like it.
But at 50 000 euro, I would rather have the Zenith STOL CH701.
Very Ugly but this plane is made for bushflying! Check it out on You Tube! If I ever move on to 3 axis, thats what I'd be interested in!

Papango = YIKES (Don't like it at all, would rather have a 701). The Remos is stunning - I had a good look at one at Oshkosh 2008. True German engineering and very well finished. I would take one over the CTSW any day of the week and twice on Sunday if I could afford it - last time I looked they were close to a million rand. The fuel tank is also situated behind the pilot in the cabin. This makes the folding wing option work, but scares me.

Te fancy. Net mooi as sy prys reg is..en as jy hom met n slinger kan start as die battery pap is.
Met daardie wiellietjies sal jy net op teer kan land nie in die BOS nie.!!

Ek stem heeltemaal saam BM! Have you seen the lekker "Massy Furgasson" tyres that are avalable on the CH701? Hulle is lekker lelik maar die ding kan amper enige plek land! I have seen this plane land on the WIDTH of a runway! Amazing

Even a parachutist needs more place to land, ha ha.
