I see that CSA, manufacturer of the Sportcruiser, have gone under with huge debts...

Děkuji za informaci. To je smutné vzhledem k užitečným změnám v hmotnostních limitech hned za rohem.

That's easy for you to say.

Myslím, že v sektoru lehkých letadel dojde poměrně brzy k dalším ztrátám

Cue joke about a bouncing Czech.

I suppose it didn't help to have Sid Snot on the webpage

[Grelly]

Very sad. I list it under my top five favourite aircraft wot I've flown.

Perhaps Piper will do what they should have done in the first place and buy them.

[patowalker]

Perhaps not. They will know all about the Cessna Skycatcher.

Isn't everyone flying Bristells anyway?

I thought they'd dissapeared years ago, sad none the less.

Sad.

Hopefully they will arise from the ashes.

There are loads flying so someone will buy it. My PS28 (C of A version) is very popular

How does it compare with the Sonaca? I haven't flown the certified PS28, but after a couple of flights prefer the Sonaca to the permit Sport Cruiser.

Chalk and cheese
The Cruiser (PS28) is light on the controls, 32kt stall speed with a payload akin to a 152.
The Sonaca on the other hand is far more harmonised and steady to fly and has a 7 hour endurance with a payload of almost half as much again as the Cruiser.
That’s why I bought 2!
