EASA IFR TRAINER on Rotax

REMAX11 · 28th Feb 2012, 08:56

Hello Folks.

I am looking for the best economical deal for a IFR TRAINER (able to fill IFR flightplan) on a ROTAX or MOGAS.

Furthermore, I am looking for a used FNTP II.

Any ideas?

Thnks for help

MOGAS is restricted to 6000ft and a tank temp of 20C, not much use for IFR......

thank you BOSE X.

Do you have any reference where I can read this limitation?

The only Rotax powered Tecnam presently available for IFR is the P2006T.

This is EASA IFR certified and with NO restrictions in the use of either Avgas 100LL or EN228 spec MOGAS (and up to 10% Ethanol) regarding altitude or temperature, or anything else for that matter.

In the UK the restrictions were written as CAA Airworthiness Notices (now CAP747 Generic Concessions) before the Rotax 912S was born.

CAA Safety Regulation Group Surveyors agree that the Type Certificate Data Sheet takes precedence over GCs.
