GA10 to fly later this year

written byaustralianaviation.com.au|March 5, 2011

GippsAero says that plans to launch its long-mooted GA10 turbine utility aircraft are well underway, with the first prototype expected to fly later this year.

The 10-seat GA10 will retain many of the features of the eight-seat GA8 Airvan, but will be powered by a Rolls-Royce 250 B17F2 turboprop engine. “Our goal is to retain the successful GA8 design and to use current production parts to provide a strong support solution across the globe” said GippsAero’s engineering manager Gerhard Jordaan.
