      Exec 162F 
      
      
        
      
            
             
            Combining a technological breakthrough in 
            powerplant design with refinements to a highly successful, award 
            winning airframe, the new Exec 162F has elevated a tradition into a 
            revolution in helicopter performance. 
            The Exec 162F's powerplant is the most advanced 
            in the industry, utilizing the very latest, fully automated, digital 
            electronic control system known as "FADEC". Designed to incorporate 
            high performance with maximum reliability, maintenance on the Exec 
            is kept to a minimum. Fuel consumption is only 8 gallons per hour 
            and Avgas is not necessary, the Exec 162F works perfectly with 92 
            Octane. Long lifetime components with replacement costs typical of 
            those found in the amateur built category are reflected in the 
            Exec162F's incredibly low operating costs. Costs are a fraction 
            those of the nearest production craft. 
            The Exec 162F utilizes an asymmetrical airfoil 
            for improved autorotation characteristics and safety. An elastomeric 
            rotor hub eliminates a lot of moving parts, bringing considerable 
            simplicity to the rotor system.
