PEA på shopping

Pressemelding fra PEA:
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, January 2008

PHOENIX EAST AVIATION ADDS TO PRO TRAINING FLEET


Daytona Beach, Florida, USA –- Phoenix East Aviation, Inc. (PEA) announces the planned expansion of their training fleet with the order of ten new Cessna C-162 Skycatcher aircraft. These advanced single-engine aircraft will further enhance the academy’s training fleet and provide students with better preparation for careers as professional pilots.


The Cessna model C-162 is an all-metal, single engine piston, high wing monoplane with two person seating. Scheduled for delivery next year, the 162 will be equipped per FAR 91.205 to meet both day and night VFR flight requirements.


The Skycatcher was designed to be built in compliance with the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards for Light Sport Aircraft.


A single Garmin G300 display will provide primary flight and engine information in a split screen format. The aircraft will be powered by a Teledyne Continental Motors

O-200D engine, a air-cooled, four cylinder, direct drive engine that produced a maximum of 100 brake horsepower at 2,750 RPM. The flight controls will consist of dual control sticks, providing movement to the ailerons and elevator.

Noen fra PEA som har hørt noe om dette? DA42'ene har vel ikke dukket opp enda så det tar vel en stund før det blir noe 162, men når de kommer, vet noen hva prisforskjellen blir? Er dette et bra valg eller hadde dere foretrukket noe annet?

Skycatcher er en LSA. Kan man fly opp til PPL på en LSA? Og isåfall er flyet bare sertifisert for VFR, betyr det at man bare kan bruke det i sammenheng med trening til PPL?

Ja, har sett brosjyre hvor det stod om det for en stund siden i dispatchen vår..
Men planen til PEA er vel å bytte ut alle 172'ene med 162'ene, så det skal vel være mulig å bruke dem til PPL osv..
Blir nok litt forsinkelser på leveringen av dem også, men problemet med DA'en er vel heller med tanke på importen eller noe sånn mener jeg å huske..

Får håpe dere ikke får problemer med motorene på DA'ene slik vi har hatt på de DA40 til flyklubben. Jeg har såvidt sett de utenfor tekninsk siden jeg ble medlem for et ca. et halvannet år siden.
