EVEKTOR EV-55 OUTBACK

[longjon]

Who else thinks this has Dornier and Piaggo engineers on the development team. Piaggo nose and Dornier aft.

I think its a good looking machine and wish them well in selling it.

Kind of in between the King Air 100 and a Dornier. If I won 50 mil next week I would buy one, just to get it on TC's radar

Looks like MU2 gear.

In the pictures there is an artist concept of the outback on floats , how would that work with retractable gear.

[GyvAir]

Probably just remove the doors, trunions and actuators, etc. Engineer the float attach fittings to mate up with the trunion hinge points. Then close it all in with a modified door/fairing assembly.

THAT... Is a sexy plane!

[ruddersup?]

Look at that wing, you think it would work on floats?

[bushhopper]

looks like a modern version of another famous aircraft used in Europe from the 1960. Anyone want to guess?

[GyvAir]

It does have a bit of an Islanderesque look about it..

[185_guy]

Has the look of another Czech design, an L-410, just smaller.
Too bad its not pressurized, or is it?

[bmc]

I can see the lads at Pacific Coastal getting a woody over this one. It looks like a smaller, sexier Shorts 360.

[longjon]

Looks like a Let 410!! There are 3 410s operating off the field I work on and believe you me they don't look like the Outback.

Good looking bird
