Cebollas is on a distinguished road
Aerocommander 100 and 100-180

Both have very nice flying qualities, the Darter does about 100 knots and the Lark about 105 both can go 8 to 10 knots faster but then fuel consumptions increase unproportionally.

I fly in Texas and New Mexico and they have no problem climing out of any airfield, the big 180+ sq ft wing (more than a 182 or 206) makes the plane slow, but able to clim out at a very nice gradient.
Its not unusual for me to fly out with 4 persons on board plus a little luggage.

I will like to locate an exaust for the Darter if anybody is sending theirs for repair, let me know so that I can have the same shop rebuild one for me too.

On the Lark, the wheel fairings don't seem to make it go faster, but the glide ratio and looks improve a little.

Lets make a website for them.
