The tricycle landing gear is retractable. Retraction time is approximately
seven seconds, and a hand crank between the seats is provided for emergency
operation. The trailing-link landing gear absorbs energy well. You really
have to work at it to make a bad landing in a Falco.
The sliding bubble canopy provides easy entry and the unlimited visibility
of the fighter pilot. The comfortable cabin has plenty of headroom. The
ride in turbulence is smooth, and the vibration level is very low. The seats
are adjustable and an optional rear seat may be fitted for a child. Dual
control sticks are provided, and the stick on the right is removable to
allow freedom of movement for the passenger. Exceptional visibility gives
the cockpit an open and spacious feeling.
A timeless beauty and a masterpiece of design. This is no ordinary aircraft.
It is a classic European gran tourismo sex-on-wings design that has an elegance
of design and a purity of form and function not found in other aircraft.
The Falco's speed, aerobatic agility and smooth, jet-like handling puts
it in a class completely to itself.
Whatever your needs -- aerobatics, cross-country flying or both -- you will
find that the Falco will add a new dimension of enjoyment. It will give
a new meaning to flying, and put the joy of flying back where it should
be. The Falco is flying as you always dreamed it would be. |
