I'll say up front, Ihave a bias toward the Insight and am good friends with the designer.....

The Insight is a solid pattern plane design, and is perfect for the situation you are in. First, it is a top notch flier and cancompete inany class through Masters. The construction is straight-forward,strong,light, and tough. This is a great formula for success in your first venture into a full 2m pattern ship. You would have to try really hard to build this thing anywhere near the weight limit and it willperform well on a budget YS140 Sport or an OS160. The simple, woodenconstruction will allow you to "ease" into some of the more daunting parts of a pattern kit build, like sheeting foam.

My 2 cents......Richard
