Does anyone know anything bad about the Rans S-12? I recently got to fly one and
now I want one, but I know little about them. If they have any skeletons in
the closet I'd like to find out about it before I get too serious.

Hi Mickey,
kind of a "different" approach, eh?
I built an S-12 a few years back, wonderful flying airplane!
One of the best handling "ultralight type" ships out there.
I had a Rotax 582 on mine, and for reasons beyond me, the thing would climb
like a rocket--much better than some other S-12's I flew. I am not a small
guy(260 lbs) and solo, I could peg 1500fpm on climbout.
They are a lot of fun to fly, and with an enclosure(at least a partial one)
will carry a decent amount of "stuff".
RANS is an excellent co. to do business with, and any of their planes are
great. Right now I have an S-6"Super" taildragger, that has the smaller 116
wing--what an absolute blast to fly!!
Best to 'ya--get the S-12, you will love it!
Rick
