Kit Aircraft

The Personal Cruiser is a truly affordable new single place full size aircraft.  The latest home-building composite methods are used in construction which greatly reduce building time.    

It has the design goal of being safe, affordable, fun to fly, simple and quick to build.  A bit of a tall order but by using the recently perfected Fold-a-plane technique minimal finishing work is required.  Nearly all of the parts are shipped "normal" UPS saving hundreds of dollars on truck freight.  Great for our friends around the globe too. 

 The Personal Cruiser currently uses the proven Corvair automotive engine converted for aircraft use by www.flycorvair.com.  The Personal Cruiser is specifically designed for an installed engine weight of up to 250lbs and from 40-100 hp making it suitable for many alternative engines available today.

The Personal Cruiser is easy to fly -  making it an ideal first plane or a great plane to visit the grand kids - the one just for you!  Sporty enough with full span ailerons, initial climb performance of over 1,800 feet per minute will keep it fun too.

With a generous 29.5" wide cabin, it will accommodate pilots of all sizes and with 100hp will have no trouble getting over the trees either.

With AV fuel prices on the rise  - this efficient design is now approaching 50 mpg.  With a few extra aerodynamic improvements we hope to surpass the proven economy cruise of 116 mph at 2.5 gallons per hour. 

The plane can be built easily in one stall of a garage - with final assembly at the airport.
