Pipistrel ALPHA Trainer Light Sport Aircraft Cruises @ 108 knot
European LSA (Light Sport Aircraft) manufacturer has launched Pipistrel ALPHA Trainer $83000; which is way cheaper than the $100k LSAs used for training pilots. The aircraft is ideal choice for the trainee pilots to get their hands dirty with the flying stuff. The ALPHA Trainer features 32ft, 4" wingspan and Rotax 4-cylinder, 4 stroke engine. The trainer can do 108 knot which is quite awesome for trainee pilots.

The Rotax 80 HP engine is quite awesome which can do 2000 flying hours or 15 years before it needs overhaul. The engine is also quite fuel efficient and consumes about 12 liter of petrol every hour; when run on regular unleaded fuel.
What's your take?
