Phoenix Motor Glider
Yesterday, I was again grateful for my residence at Spruce
Creek Fly-In, the large airport community near Daytona
Beach, Florida. Why? Because after a lucky last-minute phone
call, I zipped over to the airport restaurant and went
flying with Jim Lee in his new Phoenix.
Now, I?m a soaring enthusiast, so a LSA
motorglider already starts well up my wish list. But this
Phoenix, whew! She?s simply gorgeous with slippery compound
curves and the handling is marvelous.
Much more than simply a soaring machine,
Phoenix climbs like the proverbial homesick angel and
can cruise faster than many LSA. It also comes
standard with two wing configurations ? 49 feet stepping
down to 36 feet ? so you really get two airplanes in one.
(Not only that, but if you need to put Phoenix in a hangar,
you can remove the long wingtips to squeeze down to a
34-foot span, hardly any wider than a ?standard? LSA.)
Inside the cockpit, the 43-inch wide space
is handsomely appointed and you have a few controls and an
instrument not typically found in LSA. You have some prop
controls ? get the full LSA Glider explanation to understand
how this works.
