Im located in Eastern Virginia and strongly considering the purchase of a flying
LANCAIR 360.  I would appreciate any info on the following:

- Local sources (East Coast) for orientation & advanced training in the aircraft.

- General performance specs for the 360. Can't find anything on LANCAIR's website
since they no longer sell the kit.
- Any words of wisdom you might like to offer.

Thanks, Greg Dexter

I am in West TN and fly a IVP around and think it is like a very slippery  
Baron 58.  Use flaps for takeoff and keep 100 IAS till short  final then 
transition from glidepath to flair 80/70 with power removed at  initiation of round

out. Carry extra speed you float,a lot.  Full stall  landings are so neat in 
that airplane. Nose wheel remains aloft even though wing  has totally 
relinquished all lift.  I  love the airplane plenty.   It has surplus thrust like
a 
gorilla on steroids.  Would not want to fly it  over gross or out of CG at all.
