Flying the FP-505 Skeeter
|
Once you are in the cockpit of the FP-505, you
can’t wait to get into the air. In a short distance of 150 feet you
are air-borne and climbing at 800 feet per minute. With the wings
above you, the visibility is excellent, and you’re rewarded with a
clear view of what’s around and below you. Even at the slowest
speed, the FP-505 maintains the flight characteristics that make for
safe, enjoyable flying. Optional brakes assist in shorter take-off
and landing rolls.
High wing, Open cock-pit
This affordable light plane combines two of the
most coveted virtues for flying purists: a high wing and an open
cock-pit.
The pylon-mounted high wing leaves the cockpit
essentially unenclosed, offering the pilot spectacular visibility
and the freedom of an open cockpit design. Fueled by a 40 horsepower
Rotax, the compact FP-505 delivers plenty of go once you get up.
Shock-absorbing gear and geodetic construction
contribute to a sturdy aircraft in an exceedingly affordable price
range.
