Pressurised? .... Perhaps in the future, till then carry oxygen at altitude.
A range of engines can be fitted to this aircraft including a Lycombing IO360. With turbo, fuel injection and electronic ignition, this engine can provide 180hp at 10,000ft. The airframe is planned to be very flexible with the ability to also fit a single turbine engine.
Haven't you always wanted to make yourself a cuppa, or just get up and stretch your legs whilst you are flying? Well now you can! A small galley with a food warmer can be fitted in the rear left of the cabin, and a toilet on the right. The SP-6000 will have 1000nm range.
A picture says a thousand words - this is a very, very classy aircraft!

Testimonials:
Peter says the use of the LightWing on his 100,000 ha property at Bourke halved the wear on his 4WD and also cut to
quarter the time taken to find and move stock.
Peter's back gate was a three-hour drive in his Toyota (oh what a feeling) or a 20-minute flight in the Australian LightWing (oh what a better feeling!)
