ANN is having a BLAST at the MidWest LSA Expo in Mt. Vernon, IL.
While low ceilings around the airport hampered or delayed a few folks from getting to the field, most of them had made it by the end of the day -- paving the way for the good weather currently forecast for Friday and Saturday. The Expo has a good showing of the regulars, as well as some new designs, with several actual ultralights and gyroplanes joining the mix. A new tail layout for the R66 Turbine will provide "enhanced roll stability during high-speed flight." Robinson Helicopter Company says that the new configuration also aids in operating costs, increasing the horizontal stabilizer's previous 2,000-hour time between overhaul to a much loftier 4,000 hours. Universal Avionics (UA) has partnered with AerSale to develop and certify AerAware Enhanced Flight Vision System (EFVS). The successful conclusion of the certification flight test program prescribed by the FAA and its certification have come to pass. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unlimited!!!
