The Australian LightWing PR BREEZE Kit The Australian LightWing PR Specifications (view/download .pdf)

 

 

From spinner to tail wheel, every component has been designed with safety, economy and high speed construction in mind. The welded steel pilot protection cage has made The Australian LightWing the safest in its class. The cabin layout provides excellent all-round visibility and weather protection.

The PR Breeze is an open aircraft for the pilot that likes the feel of the wind in his or her hair. It can be built as a 1 or 2-seater with a build time of less than 300 hours. Its apprearance is the same as the aircraft shown above, however the aircraft has no rear fuselage covering.

 

The wing construction features a unique and massive 4" diameter high tensile aluminum tubular main spar; fibreglass ribs slide on to self-align. This ingenious system enables the wing kit to be framed up in a day. The Rotax 912 is the optional power plant, adding extra reliability and fuel economy.

Please contact us for details of the NEW PR Breeze, a single seat version of the PR-582.

 

 

PR Bi Plane Kit

 

Designed and manufactured by Australian LightWing as a KIT aircraft, the first PR-Bipe was test flown on Sat, 10 July, 2004. The aircraft was completed by Eddie Sieve in Sydney's northern suburbs, the aircraft was flown at Cessnock NSW.

The Bipe is a pleasure to fly, with ultra responsive controls, and is ideally suited to positive G aerobatics; the second seat can carry up to an 85kg passenger or baggage. The aircraft shown above is powered by the Jabiru 4 Cyl 4 stroke engine. The PR-Bipe is a derivative of the PR-582, this superb aircraft can be fitted with either the Rotax 582, the 912 or the 912-s.

 

 

The ALW Bipe Wing span is reduced to 6m. The aircraft can be built with a fully enclosed cockpit, seating two. An open configuration Bipe can be made to order. The aircraft is available as a kit or a quick build kit and is suitable for either AUF or Experimental registration where aerobatics are approved by the manufacturer.
