This Two Place SportPlane Performs As Well As It Looks!
The Gobosh G700S light sport aircraft is a collaboration between
Gobosh Aviation and the design efforts of Tomasz Antoniewski and
Aero -- familiar names in aviation since 1990. Based in Poland,
Aero holds Type Certificates for three different aircraft designs
-- and the G700S, a light sport variant of the Aero AT-3, is at the
top of the ladder. The American-market LSA is manufactured on the
same production line that produces certified aircraft.
The all-metal, low-wing G700S sports a seamless wing skin,
constructed from a single piece of aircraft aluminum from wing root
to wing tip. Under the skin, all aluminum parts are anodized -- a
corrosion protection process that is superior to the traditional
zinc chromate plating process. All steel parts are cadmium plated
for corrosion protection.
Standard aircraft rivets are used throughout the G700S -- a
departure from practices of other LSA manufacturers, Gobosh said,
which use blind rivets -- and the aircraft also sports steel
landing gear, making it ideal for the daily rigors of the flight
training environment. Speaking of the training environment,
ease-of-maintenance is also a hallmark of the G700S. All concealed
moving parts have hinged access doors built into the airframe for
quick and easy daily inspection or scheduled maintenance. You'll
appreciate that feature when annual time comes around.
Access to the Rotax 912 powerplant is available through not one
postage-stamp-size door... but rather two large, hinged panels,
that each allow an almost-unlimited view of the engine, and all
necessary fluid levels.
New to the US market, the G700S is being offered in three
configurations: Sport, Elite and Elite+, to appeal to the specific
needs of different owner groups (see attached spec sheet). The Day
VFR Sport Edition is positioned as an entry level platform for
sport pilots, and features a full-size, classic six-pack flight
instrument package, for less than $107,000. Private Pilots may use
the G700S Elite Edition to fly Day or Night VFR in a quest to
satisfy their curiosity of what lies beyond the horizon. In
addition to its Night VFR capability, the Elite includes an
upgraded interior and exterior trim package. An aggressive finance
offer exclusively through Gobosh Aviation Finance brings the G700S
Elite to market for under $760 per month.
The top of the line G700S Elite+ Edition targets the private
owner and offers standard amenities including two-tone leather
seats to match the custom exterior paint, Garmin 496 with XMWX
capabilities, a pair of Beyerdynamic HS300 headsets emblazoned with
the Gobosh "Spinning G" logo, and enough storage capacity for
business or pleasure excursions. In addition to accoutrements the
company says sets the G700S apart from its more spartan LSA
competitors, Gobosh also notes the G700S boasts the longest
warranty in its class at two years/400 hours -- another benefit to
commercial operators that helps reduce cost and maximize
revenue.
Best of all, it just looks (and flies) good...
check out the Aero-TV feature on the G700S and decide for
yourself!
Aero-TV Takes Off With The
Gobosh G700S!!!
About Aero-TV: It's DEFINITELY Show
Time!!!!
OK, folks, here we go... we are NOW initiating the first
feature programming series for Aero-TV... we're going to take it
slow, but we're also going to try and be steady about this. DO
UNDERSTAND that this is the most complex media program we've ever
undertaken and what you're seeing is just the tip of the iceberg...
but from here on out, we will be doing our best to educate,
inform, and entertain YOU about all aspects of the exciting worlds
of aviation and aerospace.
If you've been an observer of the media and associated media
industries over the last few years, it's not hard to mistake the
fact that a massive revolution is taking place. Old sources for
news and information are falling by the wayside, having to change
their modus operandi or risk obsolescence (or extinction).
Electronic media and print media are both under the assault of
progress, and the online world has been a cornerstone for
revolutionary change.
We've been ready to go for a while, but to be honest, there's so
much more to this program than we've alluded to, and so we've been
building and planning a massive new organization within ANN. That
said, we're hiring talented new people as
fast as we can find them (a far more difficult
task than we had imagined -- REALLY good people are hard to find),
and we're brainstorming at speeds that would make a deorbiting
Space Shuttle feel like a slug. Suffice it to say that we wanted to
do this right, rather than right-now, and that the development of
this program has been the most carefully pursued undertaking we've
ever undertaken.
E-I-C Note: The
complete feature shown above is embedded in this
story, with most of the slick and useful functionality
otherwise available on the main Aero-TV
site (which will be upgraded aggressively
over the next few weeks). The ability to embed a video on
another web page is but one of the hundreds of amazing little
features that we've worked hard on, for many months now, to
implement in different phases of the initial release of
Aero-TV. It is, BY NO MEANS, the only way to enjoy unaltered
Aero-TV programming on other parts of the web... as we have
extensive plans for future functionality, but this feature
allows those with an interest in a specific Aero-TV News or Feature
program to embed it on a different web site, though we must
note that we reserve the right to forbid such use for those sites
or purposes that we do not feel fit in with the proper mission of
the Aero-News Network, Inc.
Webmasters or Administrators of well-trafficked aviation or
aerospace related sites, are welcome to contact the Publisher to
start conversations on how they may be able to leverage some of the
immense power of Aero-TV programming for their sites and
constituency by clicking the I Want Aero-TV For
MY Website! link.
