Total build time = 1500 and total cost = $30k

More information about the DA20 here:

Diamond DA20 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Why Buy DA20 | Diamond Aircraft

Specs and mission type in summary:

- Safe and stable (good for low-time pilots)
- Two-place
- Efficient
- Good (not great) cruise performance
- Good (not great) range
- Low fuel burn
- Good room for baggage (for a two-place)

As a side question, can anyone point to a better existing flying design of a composite airplane with these general specs and mission parameters?
