I have a few ideas:

Breezy
Woody Pusher
Wag Aero Sport Trainer
Volmer VJ 22


Any others?

PS. Anyone with one of these planes within 500 miles of Charlotte, NC - I'd love to come see yours.
Not sure if you can fly with the canopy off, but you may want to look at the Osprey2.

The Searey is another possibility, and you CAN fly without the doors. Unfortunately, I don't think it's a kit only deal.

It's not a plans aircraft, and you don't want to fly with the doors open or off, or put floats on it, however I think the Tango is a fun airplane and mine is located in North Carolina.
