Good, Fast, Cheap ... pick any two.
The X-Air certainly chose Cheap. The question is which one of the remaining two choices did it pick....
After watching this

avweb.com], it makes the Piper Cubs I've seen look quite polished.
If anything, the X-Air proves the point that the fit and finish of a 162 Skycatcher comes at an appropriate price.
