Flying For Fun...
My Phoenix X-Treme PPC
The beautiful hills of Northern Kentucky at 400 feet from my Phoenix PPC.
The airframe is custom painted with Harley Davidson's Chromie Silver and Pearl Black. The lift is provided by a Performance Design 500 sq. ft. High-Lift Wing. Swinging a 68" Ivo Prop attached to a Rotax 582-E-drive provides plenty of lift to this light weight frame. Just to make it look good it also has a Ceramic Coated Chrome Exhaust and Tundra Tires.
I normally can climb about 700 feet per minute and when carrying two it will still climb about 400 feet per minute.
Flying PPC is great fun and very interesting. Especially if you enjoy working on aircraft or just being around them.
