i am in the process of building 2 of them at the moment, and in Oz, you CAN log your time in a cri cri as Twin command time... and there have been numerous cases around the world of builders building them only for this reason!
they cruise at 100 Kts, rated to +9G ulimited aerobatics, and can climb and easily maintain altitiude on one engine.. the only reason there is no assymetric flight with one engine out is the prop wash is deflectd off the side of the canopy and counteracts the yaw created by 1 engine inop.
also with a relativly high wing loading, they handle turbulance a little better than a C182.
