GippsAero GA8 Airvan Takeoff
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- Gippsland GA-8-TC320 Airvan C-GIPU is seen taxiing and taking off from CZNL, Nelson, British Columbia. This was a really cool catch for me, and the first time I've even heard of one of these Gippslan single-pistons! Slightly resembling a Cessna Caravan, the GA8 is built in Australia (Leth, have you ever seen any of these around?) and I don't think there are too many in Canada.

I've never seen one of those before, it reminds me of the Cessna 208. Great Catch!
It really does look like a little Cessna Caravan. This was the first and only one of these that I ever spotted.
A freight train and a plane! Cool, amazing stuff!
Holy moly. What a climb rate!! I've heard of the Airvan before, sweet little planes.
The Airvans come in boxes to Olympia and are assembled there.
This one was flown to Buttonville near Toronto, and I flew it back to Boundary Bay BC.
I am the pilot in this video :)
There are two more Airvans to come onto the Canadian register soon.
Good video BTW.
That's good to hear, hopefully they'll pass through Nelson along the way! Must have been quite the trip ferrying this aircraft from Buttonville all the way to Boundary Bay.
@@michaelpeare775 How did you like flying it?
@@kevinmoore4887 I am the SIC in this flight ...Good video !
@@aeropilot007 How do you like the GA8?
Nice take off ! 9 was killed 3 days ago in a crash in Sweden with GippsAero GA8 Airvan at 14th of July 2019 . It was falling from 4000 meters , 12000 feet.
Very sad to hear!
I think you could see it's last minutes on Flightradar24
Actually, they are quite common. The US Civil Air Patrol has about 20 of them. They are all over Hawaii and Africa flying sightseeing tours (huge windows) and they are used commonly in Australia in the Outback and to fly to Tasmania.
They're still really rare up here in Canada, this is actually the only one registered in the whole country. Hopefully there will be more flying around up here soon!
It's so fun riding in flying vans, it's sad that most people who like flying cars are missing out on the fact that they already exist.
it would certainly be fun to fly one of these sometime! thanks for the vid!
I bet it would! Thank you very much for watching.
Great video, amazing takeoff scenery ;)
Thanks a lot!
Unique little plane. LIKED
Thanks!
Great catch, I saw one of these myself recently, Liked!
Nice! They're a pretty cool little aircraft!
They seem so much like the 208
that's a rarity, I'd never heard of that before, that train in the background reminds me of a time there, had to wait 5 minutes for it to pass at a crossing!
Ya, I've got stuck waiting for the train a few times here myself. Seems to always happen when I'm in a hurry to get to the airport :-)
Beautiful footage of this little big plane mate. Great job. :-)
Thanks a lot :-)
nice aircraft and CP train in background
Nice looking and sounding Aircraft. Not seen one of these Airvans before. Clever how you managed to capture the Train at the end of the runway the same time...best of both Worlds !! Lol.
I thought you might like the train, Steve! It really came into the frame at the perfect timing! :-D
Fantastic video as always!
Thanks!
Great catch, a lovely little plane; didn't know GippsAero before !! liked!
Thanks! This is the first time I had heard of this company as well.
Wow, that's a very nice looking plane, with a great sound! Nice footage mate! :) Beautiful rotation in front of you. Big like! :)
Thanks a lot, Mylos!
***** nice :), i never this seen type of plane down here hmmmm, looks so similar to the caravan
Made 30 minutes from where I live. Nice Aircraft too!
WOW! that's a cool little plane, I've never seen one, I hope to fly on one in Hawaii, you know how I like to fly in different Planes & Helicopters :)
Thanks for the great video showing me what they are like.
+Ed Whisenant Thanks very much for watching! This was a really lucky catch for me, first time I had seen, or even heard of, the Airvan. I hope you get to fly on one soon, and I'm looking forward to the footage from the flight.
I would not mind a Turboprop version with pressurized cabin and wheel pants.
Cessna 208 & DHC-6 Twin Otter are Best Planes in the World.
Geez, that thing's a carbon copy of a Cessna Caravan, lol! Nice shot of the rotation too, very well done!
I have to wonder how it got all the way from Australia though :P
It would definitely be quite the adventure for the pilot who ferried it all the way from Australia! I have no idea what route they would even take.
it's like a quest kodiak+ cessna caravan, but astrailian
Ya, it really does! Thanks for watching.
Nice plane and video! Great job :P
Thanks!
Nice shot :) liked :) amazing video
Thanks!
Is ice protection an option? They need to put EPS Graflight V-8 diesel in it. And as an option for the stretch GA10 too.
Looks like a small Cessna 208
Ya, it really does.
9 people dead today in Sweden in accident with this planetype.
Just read an article about it, sad to hear.
You could even see its last flight minutes on Flightradar24
I grounded all these planes in July 2019. Too dangerous.. Falling from sky. Us aussies should stick to gay rights instead if copying the Americans.
It was found that it had been operated outside its design specification. The plane itself isn't dangerous. The way it was flown was.
