Flight Testing the SuperFalco

Last week was a great week for the SuperFalco team….Andy Stevenson Aviation, Farmers Air, Hamilton Aero Maintenance, and Flight Structures.

Flight testing was conducted with five flights over two days. It’s a collaborative process involving the Test Pilot, Flight Test Engineers, and Maintenance - with the purpose being to gather data for R&D and potentially certification.

The SuperFalco is based on the PAC750XL Airframe with the Pratt and Whitney PT6A-140Ag engine, the MVP -50T Electronic Instrument Display and other improvements to make this a safe, cost effective spreader.

The photos tell some of the story - you don’t see the preparation in advance of the flight testing, and the wrap up work on reports happening now. We will be releasing video next week.
