New Aircraft for Sale: GA8 AIRVAN by GippsAero Pty Ltd, A Cost Effective Choice 0


The  Airvan  Freighter  is  designed  to  be  capable, reliable, efficient  and  a  cost  effective  load  hauling  aircraft. Parcel freight   requires   a   commodious   cargo   compartment   - theAirvan  provides  an  area  of  3.4  m³(118  cubic  ft)that  is accessed  by  a  rear, in-flight, sliding  door  measuring  42.5 inches  by  42  inches. The  size  of  entry  allows  for  fork  lift loading ensuring quick turn around times. Cabin floor height, a   critical   factor   in   relation   to   employees' Occupational Health and Safety, is designed to reduce bending and lifting.




Other unique features include the removal and blanking off of the duplicated cockpit dual controls, the removal of the light weight baggage locker and associated nets and the removal of the passenger cabin ventilation fan and associated ducting - all intended to reduce the empty weight even further and thereby increasing payload.




The standard GA8 Airvan has a cockpit that is specifically designed for single pilot operation with all controls, instrumentation, avionics and essential selectors and switches grouped for comfortably access by the pilot in both VFR and IFR configurations. To utilize the now vacant space on the RHS of the cockpit a special parcel bin has been certified and this locker can hold approximately 100lbs of smaller parcels that the pilot can retrieve whilst seated, or can be accessed from the RHS cockpit door to allow rapid delivery of these small items without having to access the main cargo area via the large sliding rear cabin door .


The GA8 Airvan, initially certified in 2000, has now established a history of consistent service with world-wide operators and demonstrated capability as a rugged, reliable, efficient and highly cost effective platform for numerous tasks including passenger transport, tourist scenic flights, freight hauling, emergency work associated with flood and fire relief, medevac, and as a tactical reconnaissance aircraft. It’s load carrying ability and low fuel consumption at loiter have made it an excellent platform for consideration as a dedicated observation and communications platform. 


The ability to carry full fuel, a crew of three and over 550lbs of mission payload have made the GA8 Airvan ASTRA the most cost effective platform available.
