Love the Dragonfly, except for only being able to carry me, my wife & about 25
pounds that have to split up into small bags.
Fully loaded & full fuel, I cruise at 135-140mph. By myself, cruise is 150mph at
4.5gph.

Greg,
Always wanted to have a chance to fly a dragonfly. Neat looking machine.
I can tell you that you'll get a little more baggage into the Lightning,
with two people, cruise a little faster (about 170-175mph) and burn a little
more (about 5.5 gph). I imagine that the dragonfly is pretty responsive,
and so is the Lightning. Welcome to the message board though. My name is
Brian Whittingham and I will be doing some flight testing for a speed mod in
the near future. (flap hinge fairings and gap seals for aileron, elevator,
and flaps) I don't work for Arion, but have from time to time flown the 40
hours time off of customer's planes. I am by SYI a couple of times a week
at least. Brian W.
