- Why the Icon A5 is the Best Family Aircraft
The Icon A5, an American Amphibious aircraft, takes Fun flying to a whole new level. Whether on water or land, you can fly and land this aircraft without any hassle and have that special moment with your loved one. While the Icon A5 was formally introduced on July 7 2014, its idea was developed as far back as 2008, with the first prototype flying on July 9. The creation of its production tooling began four years later, in December 2012.

Other than calling Cirrus or Southwest Airlines - the A5 could be made much better, if Icon just dropped the LSA limitations, instead of making severe compromises to get within the limit.
1) Drop the parachute. Most single-engine airplanes including LSA don't have any, this is already much safer due to being able to land on water.
2) Put in a bigger engine (915iS for instance) and 1.5x bigger fuel tank.
This would be a "standard category" version - not LSA, but a MUCH more appealing option for those who already have a PPL or are willing to get one.
I am 51 seconds into the video and the amount of times that the video says how much you and your loved one can connect is making me nauseous!
A 2 seater "family" aircraft? How much is ICON paying you? 😂
I don't think this thing is inherently flawed. It has many cool features, and no one should fall out of the sky with it, at least not without a good reason. In the end, it's a toy, not so much a serious airplane, even though it can fly. The price makes it a very expensive toy that can only be afforded by a certain group of people, and that is where the problem begins. As proven over and over, money does not necessarily equal brain power. Go and check the NTSB reports on this airplane.
This was a great plane when the company first started out and was taking orders for it at $159,000. I went to visit them when they first started. I’ve visited their facility in Vacaville, CA. The aircraft is amazing, but it’s not worth $389,000. The company is struggling and seems to be terribly mismanaged. It’s a great product, but seems like a terribly managed company.
I wonder if they had to increase the price because of the crashes that probably raised their company liability insurance costs.
Price is crazy.
How is this a family aircraft if it’s only 2 seats
That's a California family: 2 people, possibly of the same gender. And MAYBE a chihuahua
For a price of almost 400,000 I could find a used aircraft that would be a lot better in a lot faster
Just because your smart enough not to buy this highly overpriced piece of junk at $400,000, doesn't mean that people with way more money than they have common sense can't waste their money. Lol
@@mauriceevans6546 ok
@@mauriceevans6546 is it really a waste of money it can land on a lake as well
@warhammerfaction there are several very capable seaplanes that are half the price. It is for people with more money then aviation sense IMO!
@@mauriceevans6546, I've been looking into one as a newbie. What other options do you suggest looking into?
This aircraft engine?
Rotax 912iS. A $30k engine in a $300k+ aircraft. Don't ask...
😮from $155,000 to $399.000 😮 wow that’s more than 50% increase.that’s crazy.
It has 2 seats
It's cool, but wouldn't get a 2 seater ever
The other seat is for a "single passenger"...... sorry to all the married folk, no rides for you.
perfect for me gives me excuse to not take her see honey right single passengers only !! worth it as Axe once said
uh-5, lol.
so many AI aviation channels. I blocked them all.
Unwatchable, this video seems to be made to get hepilessys crisis
lol uhhh what is this
