All the way from Brazil comes a sharp little airplane called the Quasar, which will remind some visitors of an earlier American design of a similar name.

Did this company go out of business?
Hi Kenneth: What is it FBI and politicians say? — “I can neither confirm nor deny.” What I do know is that I have not seen anything on this aircraft in many years, with regrets.
After the death of Hiroyuki Hasegawa in 2016, HKS decided to cease production of new engines. Aeroalcool is still in business and producing Quasars in Brazil with Jabiru 2200 and 3300 engines. Those are too fast to be an LSA in the US, though.
