DeltaHawk Engines displayed an enhanced 180HP GA engine at AirVenture this past July.
DeltaHawk is in the final stages of preparation for certification. The company has invested significantly in the analysis and testing of its engine, resulting in numerous enhancements to the design. For example, the new head design provides improved efficiency, simpler inspection and maintenance, a lower parts count and a reduced engine weight. A redesigned exhaust system offers enhanced exhaust flow and improved packaging.
The market continues to show that pilots prefer a simple, easy-to-maintain engine with the highest level of reliability. This understanding drives these final enhancements of our jet-fueled design. The new engine is smaller, lighter, and approximately 35 – 40 percent more efficient than AvGas burning engines and can fly further on less fuel, lowering the owner’s total cost of ownership.
DeltaHawk is creating this engine family to be an industry leader and supply the GA community with the best-choice engine in terms of reliability, durability and level of safety combined with extraordinary performance, making aviation safer and more affordable worldwide. (Source: Deltahawk Engines)
