Hi gents. Im Nevan and own the Aircam at Old Station.
The aircaft was built in the USA in 2000 then spent a few years in Costa Rico before going to Mexico. It appears the plans to use it for banner towing came to nilch and it spent 10 years in storage there. It then went back to the USA in 2019 and was rebuilt at the Lockwood Factory which included adding the Dynon EFIS.
It finally arrived in Melbourne in Jan25 and was re-assembled in Tyabb. Total time as of today is only 500hrs.
There are two other Aircams in Australia, both of them on floats in Mt Isa and Melbourne, and two kits under construction in Temora and Adelaide.
Im idly bouncing my way back to Perth, probably over the top end.
Its a great aircraft on floats but all the salt water in WA turns love into a labour - so wheels it is.
I cruise along at 70mph and 20 lph (total) - so low and slow and enjoy the world slipping by.
Takeoff is 3secs and about 30m so its a thrill to fly and asymmetrics are a non event.
Thanks for taking an interest.
