Icon Aircraft

This article has quite a bit of misinformation about general aviation but it does highlight an exciting company and trend in GA, that being the light sport aircraft (LSA) category and industry. No company is garnering more of the LSA spotlight than Icon, and for good reason, they have one really, really cool aircraft. I recently had an email exchange with the founder and CEO, Kirk Hawkins saying that the support for their cause is extremely strong and they receive emails daily from all over the world encouraging them to keep moving forward. I, for one, hope that the company becomes a success as GA and the industry can certainly use the shot in the arm.
