All,
I've followed this thread but hesitated to add to it because I think
that all of the Coupe benefits have been covered. However, I do think
that these benefits have some personal priorities related to them. In my
change from an IFR rated Private Pilot to flying under the Sport Pilot
Rules, I had certain priorities.
Affordability - in purchase cost, maintenance, and operations.
A certified aircraft.
Good performance.
Side-by-side seating.
An electrical system.
An Ercoupe was about the only aircraft that matched up to meeting my
priorities. Next on my list was an Aronca Chief but I got lucky and
found a Coupe before I got too impatient. I find that I've also gained a
plane that is easy to fly, fun to fly, and safer to fly. Who could
really ask for anything more?
