    Hey there. What's the price on a bush plane

    • @kfaaircraftandadventures
      @kfaaircraftandadventures Год назад

      Hi Diesel, its a bit like asking me how long a piece of string is but for the sake of our international customers. Kits start at around 30k USD for Explorer and around 36K for a standard Safari. The Safari XL is a bit more expensive as it has the new STL wing which comes with carbon leading edges and wing tips as well as larger tanks. That price will include a FW fwd kit of the average engine choices. Some will be cheaper and some more expensive. For flying aircraft it will depend on whether it is new or used and anything in-between. They can range from 30kusd for an old Bushbaby or 120k-150k usd for a new Safari with a Rotax 916iS (160hp). The kits are quite complete but you will have to buy some items. User choosable items are not included so these will be items like your final paint colour, upholstery, wiring, lights, avionics, engine and propeller. For a more exact quote it will be better to complete the contact form on our website and I will have a quote sent to you. RSA residents will qualify for a local price.

    • @kfaaircraftandadventures
      @kfaaircraftandadventures Год назад

      It is a lot of fun to fly. Cruise speed depends on engine and prop but fully loaded I plan on 85kts although I mostly do over 90 in my plane. Its fitted with a KFA 912 ULS-ST (135hp) engine. Fuel burn at 22-23 L/hr so that gives me 4,5 to 5 hrs with a little bit of reserve.

      Thank you for your comment. We are still working on the factory build LSA for the USA. For now we are concentrating on Oshkosh 2023 and have just shipped a container with 3 planes to our North American distributor to complete for the show. At the moment the experimental market is our largest market so we mostly concentrated on that sector for NA. These are exiting times for KFA as we are expanding capacity and improving performance and quality. Watch this space.
