Comet Race complete in Italy - July 2010

The painting of FK-12 Comet # 085 is now complete. This aircraft is the first to be painted in the "Comet Race" colour scheme designed by Aircraft Studio Design and Aviema of Italy.

The finished aircraft looks fantastic.

A second FK-12 Comet will be painted in an orange/blue "Comet Race" colour scheme later in 2010

FK-12 Comet Production

Welcome - This is a very simple Blog and will contain details of FK-12 Comet production. The FK-12 Comet is a very attractive ultralight sports biplane built by B&F at Speyer, Germany with component parts coming from Krosno, Poland.

The FK-12 Comet can be configured as either a two seater or a single seater with a choice of open air or enclosed canopies.

By the end of 2007 approx 80 examples had been built and examples can by found in many in many countries.

The information shown below has been gathered through my own research dealing with local civil aviation authorities, aviation publications and trawling the WWW for new info and contacts.

For each FK-12 Comet produced I am trying to tie up the construction number ( MSN or Werknummer ) with a specific aircraft registration - I have identified a number of FK-12 Comet registrations for which I do not yet have a confirmed construction number - if you can help resolve or correct any of the information shown here then please do get in touch.
