The overlays show the differences quite well. My wife Edi and I are both short so there is an added bonus in terms of usable interior room. It won't happen overnight but ought to be a good follow on project to the Pietenpol.

Cougar vs Panther mockup
It was exciting to see a profile drawing of the Cougar earlier today. I wanted to compare it with the Panther so I did an overlay. I was surprised to see how similar they both look. A few differences I noticed:
- Canopy has a steeper rake. I recall reading the Panther may be getting a different canopy?
- Roll bar is reinforced from the front
- Gear seems higher
- Surprisingly little difference in length
The Cougar looks just as beautiful as the Panther and it was nice to get a glimpse of a plane I hope to build.
