Comments
Coroplast - are you sure? It degrades and disintegrates from UV exposure, its not a robust material at all.
"..and shorter runway." ??
It must be a translation error.
This is definitely a function over form design.
Yeah, I would really really like a twin for the perceived "able to get back home if an engine fails" factor, though I'm not sure it's really true?
But the price on that is... ouch.
Twinstar on steroids, I like should be a great platform.
