Aero-TV: A Unique Amphibious Airframe - An Updated Look At The Super Petrel LS
The Super Petrel LSA Is Here To Stay....
At the U.S. Sport Aviation Expo 2016, we learn that a biplane is not necessarily a piece of history from the golden age of aviation. ANN News Editor, Tom Patton, payed a visit to find out more about the Super Petrel, a modern amphibious biplane.
In this video, Tom talks with David Kyrk, the Director of Sales and Marketing for Super Petrel USA. Kyrk tells us that the airplane has actually been around for about 20 years, and they have just opened a new production facility in Ormond Beach, FL. The design started in France and has been built elsewhere, but now it is being made available at the new U.S. facility.
When asked why they chose a biplane configuration, Kyrk answered that it was a combination of increased stability and lower landing speed without flaps. The airplane is powered by three variations of the Rotax 900 series engine and, as Kyrk describes the performance of the airplane, you’ll be surprised by the amount of weight that it can carry.
As David and Tom discuss the details of the airplane you’ll see some great video of this unusual airplane in flight and operating on the water.
