Flight Design introduced its new F-Series airplanes at AirVenture 2019. Flight Design president, Tom Peghiny, told Aero-TV’s Tom Patton that the aircraft will be certified under Part 23 as well as an SLSA. The F-2 will be available with both a Rotax 912 engine and a Seimens electric motor. Next year, the company hopes to have a 4-place F-2 flying behind a Rotax 915 engine.
According to Flight Design, the structure of the F2 is manufactured to close tolerances in pre-impregnated carbon fiber for great structural strength and light weight. Flight Design general aviation has created an international team of light aircraft industry specialists and designers to collaborate on the F2. The advanced features of the F2 will make all your flights safer and more enjoyable but also a better environment for learning how to fly.
The airplane will be offered with an expanded range of avionics to suit your personal aviation mission. The F2 features some of the most advanced, yet easy to use avionics from Garmin including the G3X Touch screens for unmatched situational awareness, integration of the Rotax engine management system, checklists and diagnostic functions.
