Hello builders, I am starting a project and I want to make sure I decided to build the right aircraft. I made my choices basicly down to 2 types: Volksplane VP-2 or Fisher Flying Products Dakota Hawk.
I know they are different types, but I like some things on each one.
On VP-2 I like its simplicity. I studied the plans and it looks really easy to build. It is not very speedy though.
On the other hand Dakota Hawk looks nicer, is faster, but its more complicated to build.
I want to use Great Plains 2300cc VW engine or Limbach 2000 (also VW conversion).

Anyone has some experience in any of theese types? Which one do you like more?
