One the most proven airframe designs in all of Light-Sport Aviation is the T-211 series from Dallas, Texas-based IndUS Avation. In this video of the Thorpedo — the more powerful version with the Jabiru 3300 engine — marketing man Scott Severin helps us visualize the changes to make the airplane better accommodate larger occupants. In addition, they have an instrument-training panel that flight schools might find compelling.

Is Indus Aviation still in business? Are they still producing the LSA and kit versions of the T211?
Hi John: Regretfully, IndUS is no longer operating but very recent news indicated the owner of the tooling and design rights is pursuing new opportunities to get the Thorp models back in the market. I cannot predict his success or timing at this.
