LSA-kit: The All New Patriot
 
Hi all,

just bought the kit and I´m all excited--> I´ll buy the Rotax 100HP to go with it, and a glass cockpit.

Any feedback??

Congratulations ! Looks surprisingly attractive and appears a well thought out solution. I like the way the engine instruments faced towards the pilot.

5.5 hrs range ? My bladder's range is 2 hrs :hmm:

To Sir George Cayley
 
2 hr. bladder range--> well for me personally, bladder range is not so much an issue as long as I´m sober--> and I tend to fly sober.
Also, a sanitary stop can be interesting, and it´s still good to know that you don´t have to relieve yourself next to a gas station--> it creates flexibility.

Yep, I love the design, the centre console is where I will have 1 central throttle lever--> not that iron stick coming out of the dashboard like on the pics.
Cost the same!!

Looking forward to have her assembled.
Presently working on the livery……….


Cheers,

KIT prize
 
The kit cost me around US$26.000,-.
This includes seats, seat belts, wheels, cockpit panelling, and a choice between 2 paint jobs etc. I did not take the brakes for the co-pilot, and as mentioned I went for a central throttle, not the double knob. Bear in mind that the cowling for Rotax and Continental (air cooled) are different--> see pics.

Extras that I took were long range tanks, the exhaust kit for Rotax, and the wheel fairings.

My insruments I will purchase from Spuce, USA.

I bought this Aeroandina in Cali, Colombia.
Please check taxes for transport for the UK.

Cheers,
