Cessna to build LSA

Cessna officially became the first major U.S. manufacturer to enter the light sport aircraft market after it announced today it would develop and sell an aircraft in the class. The company has been showing a concept LSA since last year. At press time the company did not respond with what it felt the market size was for the aircraft.

The other shoe drops! Any news on the engine choice?

I have read a report today that states it will most likely be the Continental O-200.

I hope it's the O-200, just don't leave the ugly cowl that the prototype has.
