It weighs about 650# empty and top speed is about 180mph with a 100hp engine. A Midget Mustang.

    Honestly not much of a traveling machine, but it's fun and cheap for hamburger runs and entertainment. I'm not really one to go on vacations.
    I'll bite. Ultra light? Long-e-z? Your cruise is 180, or Vne? Must be a slippery airframe either way way.

    I've got 200hp and 180 is close to my Vne. Cruise is no where near.
