Evektor Cobra
The
VUT100 COBRA
is a new light, multi-purpose, all-metal airplane.
The airplane is
designed for:
- touring and
sport/pleasure flying
- basic and
advanced training of private and military pilots
- night flight
and instrument flight training
- private and
business travelling
- aero-towing and
other special purposes
- general
commercial use
A modern, fast and economic airplane.
The airplane shape was designed and optimized with respect to the
best possible aerodynamic characteristics. Controllability,
stability, speed and excellent flight characteristics were the main
objectives in designing the airplane shape.
The VUT 100 Cobra will be available in
two versions differing by the power units. The VUT 100-120i is
equipped with a Lycoming IO-360-A (200HP) and mt-propeller MTW-12.
The VUT 100-131i is equipped with a Lycoming IO-580-B (300HP) and
the mt-propeller MTV-9.
An integral part of the airplane design
is to obtain the lowest possible costs from the ownership point of
view. From the very beginning it was designed to enable easy and
fast access to those parts of the airframe which require inspections
and maintenance. The number of nodes which require inspections and
adjustment were minimized. Operating the airplane in a mode without
overhauls means considerable decrease of inspection and maintenance
costs and therefore reduction of ownership costs.
