TRAC10 — a training plane that actually looks like a pilot's airplane

I've got a soft spot for purpose-built trainers. The TRAC10's all-composite construction and side-stick layout aren't just flash — they're the kind of deliberate design choices that make a student's first few hundred hours feel less like wrestling a machine and more like learning to fly. I only wish I'd had this in 1978 instead of a Cessna that smelled like old fuel and regret.
