FK-12 Comet c/n 086 - Update

I've recently received the photo below which shows FK-12 Comet c/n 086 in production at the FK Protech factory at Krosno in September 2010 - this aircraft will be powered by an EPA Power uprated Rotax engine.

The aircraft will be delivered to a customer in Italy at the end of October 2010 and might be painted in an attractive blue and orange colour scheme.

Giovanni in Italy tells me that he is very excited about his new build FK-12 Comet which he hopes to receive in May 2010.

The aircraft is current under final assembly and will be fitted with an uprated Rotax engine modified by EPAPOWER of Italy - the engine will feature 1,500 cc with electronic injection giving approx 120 HP for take off and 100 HP in flight.

The aircraft will be based at a small airfield near Saronno in the Lombardy region of Italy.
