Do they fly any adult-sized planes? geez. Looks like everything is member-contributed LSAs

The executive director of Sky Watch UK came to the US in 2009 and visited CAP NHQ and several wings. I was one of the people he talked with when he visited our wing. LSAs are their primary aircraft, but there are some adult-sized planes.
