Excerpts from Scott Kellog's C-15-0 trainer:

:Power:		(1/2) Fusion=202.32MW, Dur=30/60

  'bout time they did away with that old Lycoming/Pratt&Whitney
  thing they used to power 'em with.  What's the MTBO?


: C&P Ltd has a longer history than the that of the Imperium.

  It was tough going for a while there, during the "litigiousness
  era" when liability insurance costs put Piper into bankruptcy
  allowed the buyout by Cessna.  Some historians claim that it
  was only the advent of interplanetary flight that saved the
  Terran aerospace industry.



:Who will buy a Cessna
:Model 15-0, built in 1121 when one built in 1102 can be bought
:for substantially less?

   Someone who doesn't want ot pay for all that *rented* time
   on the hull?

:	Probably half the private pilots in the Imperium, and more
:than a few military pilots first soloed in a C&P 15-0.

   Can the new models still do low-altitude atmospheric spins?
