I understand, from a post on Avsig, that Cirrus has announced a Light Sport aircraft to be added to their lineup.

Hmmm, very interesting. I wonder what will be next, a Boeing LSA?

Wonder how long it'll take for the GA designers to create a LSA jet.

How about a Beechcraft LSA? Mooney could put the Mite back into production. The possibilities are endless! No, wait; the Mite is a retractable.

Here's a picture of it... goes by kind of quick on the site, so I snagged it for closer review.

Landings.com shows N146CD as an FK-14B Polaris. Looking on Airliners.net, I tend to think Cirrus bought a design:

according to Cirrus and the press releases, they are basically modding an Fk-14 to make it slow enough, among other things, to fit the LSA definition

It's a nice looking plane. An interesting addition to the group.
