    I would love to see what Rupp is up to lately.

    In the Producer does the rear seat go back or is the fuselage extension aft of the rear seat?

    You have to wonder why Piper didn't bring a "Producer" type to market.

    Some of the Producer type have 3 doors, are 4 inches wider than a PA-22, and run 220+ HP ... That's what I'm talking about! The PA-14 is a toy in comparison.

    Yes, the PA 14 is somewhat under powered. Which, maybe some of the issue for the Producer, it takes a bunch of power to perform.

    The certified " Producers" are approved up to 180HP and mine (N1335K) is equiped with a 160 HP. N915RD is set up with a 180HP. I will, (and have) gone heads up with the Super Cubs. Check the numbers for the Valdez STOL competition. I am just finising up a certified "Producer" that is equiped with a 150 HP and plan to do the test flights within the next couple of weeks. And I starting on another Experimental version that will have a 200 HP IO-360 Lyc on it. - Steve
