Flightstar aims for year-end deliveries

Ellington, Connecticut-based Flightstar introduced the German-designed C-42 Cyclone two-seat sportplane at Oshkosh '97. Kit deliveries will begin later this year, followed in 1998 by certificated Cyclones produced by Sebring, Florida-based Leza-Lockwood Aviation. Kits will cost about $30,000, including 60kW (80hp) Rotax 912 engine and a BRS emergency parachute-recovery system.
