Pressurized Aircraft

(OP)
Doea anybody know of a pressurized "experimental" aircraft?
Not a TC'd airplane now operating in Special/Experimental airworthiness category or a factory built machine hoping to get its TC sometime in the future.  I'm thinking more like a Glasair or Cirrus that was amateur built.  Maybe even a small twin.  Any thoughts out there?  Thanks for your comments.  DER/DAR

RE: Pressurized Aircraft

There's a guy across from us that has a 'Lancair', powered by a Walther turboprop engine. Looks kinda like a PT6 clone. It is in fact pressurized, as some of the other Lancair models are, including recip powered ones.

here's a link: http://www.lancair.com/Main/iv_ivp.html

Thanks for your reply.  Last eve after I posted my query I thought of the Lancair Evolution and went to their website and found the details.  I should have thought of them first since I licensed a quick-build Lancair ES a month ago at a local airport under my DAR authority.  I'm guessing $300K for that amateur built machine.  Not exactly chump change!!

Thanks again and if you think of any others please advise.
