Here is a YouTube clip from Aero Friedrichshafen, a general aviation trade show that occurs annually in Friedrichshafen, Germany. This show is situated in Central Europe, within the three border triangle of Switzerland, Austria and Germany.
Aero gives you the opportunity to preview many of the Light-Sport imports before they arrive it the states.
Check out Cubcrafters 180 HP Super Sport LSA. This Super LSA boasts a 1200 feet per minute climb rate and a power to rate ratio that exceeds that of the the P-51 Mustang.
Comes complete with glass panels and airbags.
Base price $163,000.
I done my share of dead stick landings, but never a dead stick takeoff.
The moral of this story is,"It better to obtain forgiveness than permission".
Download the new FAA Trike Handbook. Be patient this is a 56 MB File and it will require Adobe Acrobat Reader. It looks very comprehensive and well done. This is a great new resource for all trike pilots.

Yours Truly just before my second hang glider aerotow at the Island. Today I was towed up to 2700 feet behind a Cosmos trike. Everything went real smooth with both tows. They were just sled rides in calm air, I can't weight to get up in some midday soaring conditions.
Just about to leave the launch cart.
Mark has a new North Wing trike equipped with a strutted Quest 7000 wing. This beautiful trike is powered by a Rotax 503.
Mark is a Private Pilot and an accomplished hang glider pilot.
