I'm surprised I haven't seen this show up here yet, the first GA attempt from AlphaSim.  I love this aircraft, the lines are just so futureistic.  Even after nearly 30 years, it still looks way ahead of its time.

Very cool aircraft indeed Mike! I've always liked Burt Rutan's products ... very different.

What's with your nose gear though?

That is the EZ's parking brake.  They sit on their nose when on the ground, the nose gear is only for taxiing, takeoff, and landing.
