The Bushcaddy uses only Aviation Approved 2024-T3, 6061-T6
aluminum and 4130 steel. Specialty parts are pre- formed and
welded. Constructed with pop and solid rivets, this aircraft
is one of the most robust and sturdy homebuilts flying today.
The full span lexan windshield, door wide
windows and low instrument panel provide excellent visibility.
Pilot controlled heating and ventilation are standard equipment
allowing for all weather comfort anytime of year. A large luggage
compartment located behind the seats is within easy reach of the
pilot.
As of January 2000,
76 kits have been sold to happy BushCaddy customers in the USA and
Canada, and of these close to 52 are up and flying. The BushCaddy
is the answer for the pilot who wants more from an airplane:
* modern aerodynamics for 115 + mph or 100 + knots cruise,
* stalls at 35 mph or 30 knots
* wheels, skis and floats available
* engine options from 80 hp to 120 hp
* up to 1200 fpm rate of climb
* cabin heater standard
The fully adjustable seats slide backwards
and forwards on rails with safety locks, and that they are capable
of sliding all the way forward until they can be disengaged and
easily removed.
The simplicity of the BUSH CADDY's construction assures that first
time builders can complete their aircraft in approximately 700
hours to 1500 hours depending on the experience and skill
level of the builder including the painting, engine and instrument
installation / wiring, interior finishing and all the final
fussing.
