The LoPresti's Fury, a modernized version of the Globe Swift, is getting one step closer to production. The Vero Beach, Florida-based company, operated by a son of the late Roy LoPresti, the designer of the Mooney 201, Grumman Tiger and many other aircraft, is opening a new facility in Sebastian, Florida. There, as many as 45 workers will soon begin assembling three new prototypes of the 200+ mph two-seater as part of the FAA certification process. LoPresti ultimately plans to build the Fury at a plant in New Mexico.
