Looks like an airplane to me now. New cowling, paint (whether you like the color or not ), and a general finished touch bodes well in my opinion. Does it look like a Ferrari in the sky? Well no, but it is by no means ugly, as some have said. I like it. I'm sold on the Vans reputation and success and I'm sold on the concept. Hope some real info about it comes forth from Air Venture (I want to see a video of the wings coming on and off).
