> Don't forget the Thundergulls in your high wing choices. The JT2 has the same fantastic forward view as the Titan, same wing, same tail group, same engine selections, same speeds. Not as many refinements, but still good flyers. Like Guy in his past cross country excersions in a Thundergull, I see an easy 100mph at 5800 rpm fast cruise in my 503 powered Gull 2000 single seater, probably because my maximum takeoff weight is only 696lbs, unless I didn't go to the bathroom that morning. I am concerned about the life expectany of the 503, as I have about 262 hours on it now, but it is oil-injected.

Tell you the truth, my second choice over a titan would actually be a trike, but mostly because I flew weight shift for about 4 years and transitioning back probably wouldn't be that hard.
Some of the newer 912 equipped models can go 80 to 100mph now and are available as E/SLSA. Brand new and ready-to-fly they're half or less the cost of equivalent 3-axis SLSA.
But for 3-axis the titan is still top of the heap, IMO. Best combo of view and performance available....
