Australian LightWing Aircraft Design Philosophy
Flight handling: is by far the most important aspect of a safe aircraft and its here that all our aircraft including the new SP-2000, excel. From the docile 40 kts full flap stall to a comfortable 110 kt cruise, the SP-2000 offers light controls combined with fully adjustable seats and pedals to suit all pilot, short or tall.
Creature comforts: In a flying school environment, your aircraft is not only your office but your classroom and recreational center. When you send a student solo, you need to be comfortable that he or she has been provided with an aircraft that has the maximum in safety, is comfortable and easy to operate and is sophisticated and state-of-the-art by world standards.
Safety: Sure, sitting under a glass bubble type canopy can offer a great view
of the sky but when push comes to shove and what was looking like a good
landing turns into catastrophy and you end up
upside down, nothing will protect you and your co-pilot like a fully
triangulated welded steel cage and that’s exactly what you have in the SP-2000 airframe.
Don’t you owe your flying companion… this level of safety
and protection ?
Over the past twentyfive years in the Australian Aviation industry, we have proven beyond doubt that our high-tensile aluminium framed wings and welded steel fuselage frame combine to provide the best possible protection to our pilots and passengers. Our high wing aircraft are characterized by large strut braced, aluminum framed wings and an ultra rugged space frame fuselage whilst our new low wing utilizes the more efficient cantilevered wing with a corresponding increase in flying efficiency. Both high and low wing aircraft feature the welded steel fuselage that has kept our owners safe and sound since 1985
Backup and support : The SPEED Range has been designed to compete head to head with imported two and four seat aircraft, the difference being that the SPEED Range is completely Australian made, with Australian backup, service, repair and spare parts.
The ALW SPEED is available in a range of configurations, from the RAAus registerable SP-2000S to the two, four or six seat SP-4000 registered VH Experimental.
Buy
Australian.
Prior to purchasing some other make of aircraft, say, an import, ...do youreslf a favour and ask the sales agent what the delivery time might be on a major component like a wing. At Australian LightWing, we keep wings (and most major and minor components) on the shelf so delivery is normally a few days, Please make the comparison !
I have heard of cases where imported aircraft have been out of service for months wating for parts to come from a factory in Eastern Europe or the USA, meanwhile, you are left paying lease repayments on an aircraft you can not use, we are Australian with Australian backup, this also can means lower insurance premiums because we are quickly able to asses and repair your aircraft, well thats what we have been doing for the past 26 years anyway.
