Acquires Christavia Aircraft Design
Aircraft Spruce & Specialty
Co. has acquired the design rights to the popular Christavia MK1, Christavia
MK2, and Christavia MK4 homebuilt aircraft
from the designer, Ron Mason of Elmwood Aviation in Canada. The
Christavia was designed in 1982 as a mission field workhorse. Design
requirements were short take-off and landing, small engine (low
fuel consumption), low stall speed, good cruise speed and rate
of climb, large cabin area, low maintenance and high safety factor.
The Christavia is easy to fly, and the Iarge cabin makes long flights
very comfortable. Over 1000 sets of the plans have been sold for
the MK1 (two place tandem), MK2 (two place side-by-side), and Christavia
MK4 (four place). Aircraft Spruce has plans available for these
aircraft at $225 per set as well as an information pack for $10.
Complete materials packages for construction of the aircraft are
available from Aircraft Spruce.
For the MK-2 side by side seating version of the
MK-1, increase all crossmembers in the fuselage by 35% for approximate
materials requirements. No separate materials list is available for the
MK-2. |
