Nice landings Jaco. I love the Savanha.

[@LetsGoAviate]

Thanks. Can't call it skill, the Savannah just lands that easily.

[@paulrichardson6804]

Love the Savannah, hoping to do the intro and type rating soon

[@theaeronaut-channel]

Wonderful plane indeed. Responsive like a light aerobatic aircraft and able to take off in a few metres. I fly one on floats and it still outperforms in handling capabilities almost every GA plane I flew in! Great video!

[@LetsGoAviate]

Thanks. Yeah absolutely, a great design and certainly one of the best light sport aircraft

[@vzmax]

The Savannah is popular all over the world except North America because there you have the Zenith 701 which is basically the same plane, both planes having a bit of a history in common.

[@theaeronaut-channel]

Indeed. ICP used to produce Zenith on license if I am not wrong.

[@vzmax]

@@theaeronaut-channel In fact, the story is a little more complex. You should maybe "google" the names Christophe Heintz and Maximo Tedesco. 🙂

[@theaeronaut-channel]

@@vzmax will do! 🙂

[@RedNeckWelding]

What was the engine and prop combination that he was so enthusiastic about? Appears to be a Rotax 912 with a Warp Drive prop.

[@LetsGoAviate]

912 with the E-Props

Nice video and nice plane! I'm thinking about buying a kit. Do you prefer the Savannah S to the Bushcat?

[@LetsGoAviate]

Thanks. I like both! For ease and speed of building, large luggage space, go Bushcat. For ultimate STOL performance go Savannah. If I had to choose, I'd probably go Savannah taildragger.

[@user-vh1re5oe7q]

Thanks for this! How wide is Savanna 740 ccabin? Same as the Savanna S.
Bubble doors option for both?

[@LetsGoAviate]

I'm not familiar with the 740, I assume it's the Savannah VG? I don't have straightforward answer but as best I can find online the VG cabin is 42" wide or 1.06m, the S is 43" or 1.09m and the XL is 45" or 1.16m.
I can't find info about bubble doors, might be aftermarket changes.

[@fly_gimgoon]

Could you let me know the sun visor information installed in cockpit of Savannah S?

[@LetsGoAviate]

I'm not sure. Maybe try ICP or one of the Savannah dealers.

[@Jaco_and_Monique]

Hou ook baie van die Savannah..

[@andremarais2706]

Lig net die voorwieletjie en wag. Eintlik taildragger in disguise.
