    Another important point is, even though the FAA may change their policy, until the airlines change their approved OpSpecs, nothing will change.

    I'm a bigger guy (6'1, 240ish) and I fit in a M20B fine. It was a nice flying airplane, flew it just to get a bit of Mooney time. Simple to fly, but really it should be a 2 place with a big baggage...

    Exactly, it ain't going to happen. If you waiver this, basically every LSA manufacture is going to request some sort of waiver to the 1320 limit, which makes it irrelevant period.

    Stewart Headwind

    Anyone particularly familiar with the Stewart Headwind. I ran across one online and wanted to see if anyone had any experience with them. Anything to look out for in particular, they look very basic.

    Don't forget, they could be selling this thing today if they'd give up on this cockamamie idea that they are going to get a waiver. There is zero chance, IMO, of them getting the waiver, as for the...

    Sure it does. How many people do you know flying with ADHD? Or Schizophrenia? Or clinical depression? Or, are you going to pretend that the 3rd class medical doesn't catch that.
