I was thinking the same thing! Looks a lot more rugged than his normal spring nose gear.

IIRC, the placquard outside the exhibit says they hope to have the prototype flying by September or August, and if everything goes well, move into production, with kits available for purchase in late 2007.

Nice looking bird, I'm impressed by how much the stab looks like a cardinals setup as opposed to the much more common cherokee design.

From the pictures, it looks like the wings are removable.
Looks like two large pins with a handle holding the wings on... similar to a sailplane (like Vans DG sailplane?)
