Absolutely true. In fact, last summer I happened to be parked right next to one at Sylt airport. From a distance of about twenty meters, they were partially indistinguishable (the Legacy has a somewhat longer and bigger cowling and a different landing gear mimic). When I mentioned this to the CEO of JMB, he denied my allegations of a „Legacy copy“ completely and claimed it was developed independently from scratch. Pick your version. And yes, it’s a very fine airplane...
The destinations were: Berlin EDCS _ Siófok-Kiliti (Hungary) LHSK _ Castel del Monte (Bari) BA06 _ Minotauro e Medusa (Sicily) ME06 _ Aviosuperficie del Sole (Salerno) SA06 _ Volo Serrestori (Toscana) LIQQ _ Venezia Lido LIPV and back to EDCS. I can send you the flight planning (SkyDemon or gpx) if you send me a mail to cbschaaf (AT) gmail.com
The VL3 looks a lot like a lancair legacy. Is any of the design carried over from the lancair? Great looking airplane!
