What is your opinion about being a sport pilot? I know that's probably a horrible question to pose on a forum full of testosterone-jazzed pilots, but I know my limitations and trust me, no two-bit, chump airline wants someone like me. I'd be arguing with management instead of flying!

Cessna has a light sport aircraft (LSA) called the, what else, Cessna Sport. The news release says "The Cessna Sport features a 30-foot wingspan, side-by-side seating in a 48-inch wide cabin, tricycle gear, and a 100-hp Rotax 912S engine. It has dual control sticks, upward opening doors, toe brakes, and a castering nose wheel. Construction is primarily of aluminum, with selective use of composite parts for the cowl, wing and dorsal fin."
