It's been a tough secret to keep, but I just noticed the new CLT Sport Copter two-place is now on the website:

Super Sport (http://www.sportcopter.com/Super_Sport_Copter.htm)

This is nothing like the original Sport Copter II concept which has been on the website for years. This one's a side-by-side, and the frame is welded mild steel. There's some really trick bending involved in the frame, and some pricey tooling. The views out of the CAD software are pretty neat, but you have to actually stand next to that composite cabin to appreciate how big the SS will be.

Will I guess if they make all th blades for big two place gyros they should sell a big two place gyro.
Anyone have an old Rans S-12 without the wings or tail I can make an nice SxS out of it.

I hope it has more H-Stab volume than is shown in the picture. That much cabin surface area requires it.

Doug, I've stood next to the first tail to come out of the molds, and it's much bigger than is apparent from that side view.
