What is your intended requirement? I started off with this;
120k min
Mogas
Two adults 40lb fuel and 4 hours fuel min
Derig easily
Etc.
How heavy are you? I am over 90kg and this ruled out several aircraft. Have you flown in Rotax powered machines before? If not I would be happy to take you up for a ride round and discuss maintenance etc (midlands based) – I have looked after my home built VLA for the last 8 years or so.
Compare wing loading. Some of the aircraft you have on the list have very light wing loading, others less so. This has a huge impact on the ride quality in turbulence.
Do not be put off by the “VLA is too light” argument – a C150 would fall into the VLA cat and some VLA aircraft are now over 15 years old and have well over 7000 hours in club use in Europe. Vital to find someone who understands the aircraft – particularly the Rotax, which is superb if looked after right but a complete nail if not.
Good luck,
