Flight Design CTSW N200BL
LONGWILL AIR CRAFT
Serial Number 07-06-13
MFR Year 2007
The CTSW is reported to be somewhat more challenging to fly than other LSA, owing to the higher wing loading and low drag; the low drag increases top speed, but requires additional planning in the descent. The control forces are light and, like most LSA, rudder coordination is necessary, owing to the close coupling of the tailplane. Flight Design increased the size of the tailplane and control surfaces for the 2006 model year, giving improved directional control at lower speeds and reducing the amount of rudder necessary for coordinated turns.
