Piper Breaks Into The LSA Market

Piper Aircraft made a splash at this years sport aviation expo by unveiling their foray into the LSA market. The PiperSport which looks a great deal like the Czech Sport Aircraft Super Cruiser... In fact it is the Super Cruiser (I knew I couldn't pull one over on ya'll...). I think Piper did an interesting thing, rather than research/test/market their own LSA, they purchased an already successful offering. They jumped right up next to Cessna without all the nasty press that comes from a troubled flight test regimen.
For my part the Piper "LSA" will always be the Cub, but the sleek lines of the Super Cruiser 'eh I mean PiperSport might just win me over yet.
