Features of the Angel Aircraft
The Angel is a STOL aircraft designed for performance in rough, unimproved, short airstrips. It is rugged and easily maintained. That is a desirable feature for bush type operations.
It is attractive.
The cabin is large enough for eight persons, or with easy seat removal, it can carry two medical stretcher patients and a paramedic.
It has two large cabin doors for cargo loading in the main cabin with additional cargo space in the rear of the aircraft.
It has a 13.5 hour fuel endurance with reserve fuel - ideal for surveillance or patrol flights.
The pusher type propellers help reduce noise in the cabin for better comfort. It also makes for better visibility out of the cabin, again ideal for surveillance aircraft.
The Angel is priced very reasonably. A similar competitor aircraft is nearly 30% more expensive.
It serves as a replacement aircraft for aircraft that are out of production.
