- Flight Design has been working on a follow-up aircraft to its successful CT/LS series LSA models and it's called the F2-LSA. A clean-sheet design from the spinner to the tail, the new F2 is bigger, has near flawless handling and is packed with a long list of generous safety systems. A pre-production F2 model recently arrived at Flight Design USA in Woodstock, Connecticut, and Aviation Consumer Editor Larry Anglisano went over to fly it with Tom Peghini and prepared this field report video. Read the full report in the October 2020 issue of Aviation Consumer.
getting checked out in a CTLS in South Florida. Cool airplane .I may buy a F2. WHY?
Light sport rules. NO FAA Medical.
Right now I am pausing?
WHY?
2023 FAA rewrite of LSA Rules. What suprises are in store.
Want to make sure an IFR rated pilot with medical can fly IFR in the F2.
and want to make sure a light sport rated pilot, etc can still fly VFR without the worry of the Federales possibly changing the no FAA med required rule as it is now.
By the way Aviation Consumer is fantastic. Ive learned so much.
Better than all the other mags and organizations out there.
Good vid, very nice plane. Thanks Larry and Tom
I flew this plane today... Piece of cake to land especially compared to the CTLS.. Please get this IFR capable and approved for those of us who are rated.. I think this would generate additional sales.
I'm definitely considering the F2....Wish Flight Design would publish more updates on cert, prices, etc. Have not found anything more recent than this video.
This aircraft will be 200,000
@@mauriceevans6546 I would pay 200K. Will probably be more.
@@dreadpirateCarlos I test flew the aircraft here in north carolina right after sun and fun. The fully furnished model will be 200,000 according to the salesman who flew it up from Wilmington nc.
Incredible!!
Is the 915 an option at this time.?
How about the G-650 as well I assume no problem there?
Thank you very much. Good plane.
But very new and hasn't got many years of experience.
But if I want to buy a plane one day, it will be one of the first ones I will look at.
Cirrus sr22 burns a lot of fuel and is very expensive.
This is what Cessna should've done. Too bad they've fallen way behind.
Why a Rotax engine? The reliability of a Continental O-200 is unmatched. Yes, the O-200 weighs more; but is less complicated and the added weight of the O-200 is probably not enough to get excited about. Also, the simplicity of an O-200 is unmatched. The complexity of a Rotax is a little scary. Is the Rotax engine the only choice; or can one get an O-200 as a alternate; but I assume would cost more? Safety first; or a Continental O-200 engine first? These kinds of safety choices are critical for long term, safe flying based on my 50 years and 1000 plus hours of flying time. Does Rotax offer the level of reliability of a Continental O-200? My readings say no; but is probably fixable by Rotax; over time and experience?
Listen Terry, the Airplane factory from South Africa, built the SLING 2 and then later the sling 4. Theses SLINGs were flown around the world. Once via the West and later via the East. Back to Johannesburg safely twice! Always with a Rotax. They flew one leg from LA to Hawai in 23 hours. And also from Brazil to Cape town in about 24 hours non stop.. so if Rotax is not reliable, then no engine is reliable. I have never seen a Continental engine flying around the world twice...
How many hours do you have behind Rotax 4 stroke engines? I’d take any one of the 912/914/915 series Rotax engines any day over an O-200 across the ocean.
I have flown over 3000 hours behind Rotax engines, no problem whatsoever.
They are way more modern that those gas guzzlers.
Cooling is a non issue, as is no more shock cooling the cylinders.
Rotax has more engine flying hours than you and me together in their fleet.
Stop bashing Rotax and promoting 70 year old tech.
