Vampire Light Sport Aircraft
By Allison Medoff

The newest vampire in town is sinking its teeth into the thirsty aviation crowd. Available for day and night combat the Vampire Light Sport Aircraft by Sadler Aircraft Company is built on the frame of a scaled back air-to-ground fighter jet. The lean mean machine boasts an ultra lightweight build, made from aircraft grade aluminum, space-aged composites, chrome-molly and stainless steel. The high-performance craft is designed with its prop toward the tail, along with the engine and tail-booms. The folding wing system is unique to say the least. Most vampires of the night only have a cape to claim. Double vertical folds in the wings allow the plane to be easily trailered behind most vehicles. Forget the age-old myth that vampires sleep like bats in damp dark caves or in stiff wooden coffins. This vampire boasts a wealth of comfort with adjustable seats that recline an ergonomic interior from vents to door hinges, and ample baggage space with several nooks and crannies. Hop into the captain seat (or the accompanying passenger seat) with ease as the low-slung plane has large, shallow cabin doors making entry similar to that of a luxury roadster. Designed by Bill Sadler as an improvement of his previous 1982 aircraft, the plane will be announced at the EAA Airventure 2009 and starts at $92,995.
