sorry for the ICON shitpost... it looks like it's fun to fly, but is not all that aesthetically pleasing IMO, I kinda forgot what the thread topic was.. I'll make up for with this
>>991168I saw that, its a really good looking kit.. I couldn't find info on pricing though, I guess you have to contact them for the pricing info.
The performance numbers seem interesting. Two 300hp Lycoming IO & LIO 540, 1000nm range at 120 knots and 22gph.. 600lbs full fuel useful load...
I only have my land rating, so I don't know much about flying boats, but that sounds about right... sounds like the perfect pleasure/adventure plane. The service ceiling is FL180 and single engine ceiling is 2,500 MSL (yikes), but it is a boat I guess, more options for landing off airport.
>No night flying or anything special I think. Mostly because there's only one or two aerodromes that do Night VFR.That's unfortunate, night flying is so chill, whenever I have the spare cash for an hour or two I usually go up at night.
