ICON AIRCRAFT A5

Description

Detailed Description The 916 engine conversion delivers a substantial improvement in overall aircraft performance. Comes with a fresh annual & squawk free. The additional horsepower dramatically improves takeoff and climb capability, especially on water where takeoff runs have been reduced from roughly 28 seconds in a standard 912-powered configuration to approximately 7 seconds under normal conditions. This significantly reduces hull wear while allowing operation from smaller lakes and tighter environments. Paired with the 5 blade ground adjustable Duc propeller, the aircraft delivers excellent efficiency and smooth performance. A previously installed constant speed propeller was removed in favor of the simpler and more effective Duc setup, resulting in improved performance and reduced pilot workload. For buyers seeking the ultimate version of this airframe, the 916 conversion is widely considered the most desirable configuration available. 5 Specifications Seats: Two Max Takeoff Weight: 1570 lbs Useful Load: 490 lbs (195 kg) Baggage (Max): 60 lbs (27.2 kg) Fuel: 91 Octane Auto or 100LL Aviation Max Speed (Vh): 95 KCAS (109 mph) (176 kph) Range: 427nm (45 min reserve) Takeoff Distance: Runway 640 ft / Water 840 ft Landing Distance: Runway 590 ft / Water 700 ft Engine: Rotax 912 (100 hp) *At standard conditions at sea level Dimensions Interior Cockpit Width: 46 in (116.8 cm) Wingspan: 34.8 ft (10.61 m) Aircraft Length: 23 ft (7.01 m) Aircraft Height: 8.1 ft (2.47 m) Safety Features ICON Spin-Resistant Airframe: (SRA) ICON Angle of Attack Indicator: (AoA) Planing Wingtips ICON Parachute System: (IPS) ICON Predictable Flying Characteristics Low Stall Speed visit http://www.aerocapitalexchange.com Founders Limited Edition
