Sebring Aviation - New CTsw

The Flight Design CTsw is the performance leader in Light Sport Aircraft due to the remarkable design and high-tech construction. CT stands for Composite-Technology and the name is correct. Flight Design’s engineers chose high strength-to-weight and stiff carbon fiber re-enforced plastic (CFRP) material to build the CT airframes. The carbon fiber and aramid composite airframe allows for a very strong, light and aerodynamically clean design. The unique fuselage design of the CTsw

minimizes drag and maximizes interior room for you, your passenger and baggage. The attention to detail and the cleanliness of the CTsw allow for high cruising speed and super long range.

Factory Produced The CTsw complies with all ASTM requirements as a Special Light Sport Aircraft (SLSA). The CTsw is offered in two instrument panel configurations; The Classic which comes with conventional flight instruments and UMA analog engine gauges and the Advanced which comes with the dual Dynon glass panel flight and engine management systems.

Comfort The large cabin of the CTsw has a width of 49”. The 2-way adjustable seats and extra wide cabin doors makes for easy entrance and a comfortable experience for you and your passenger. The ergonomic arrangement of the controls and instruments, plus the CT’s terrific visibility, makes long flights and learning to fly more relaxing and fun.

Performance The CTsw has a cruising speed of 112 kts (129 mph) at 75% power, 120 kts (138mph) top speed and a maximum range of 1000 miles! The strut-less carbon fiber wing has high-lift slotted flaps for amazing short field capabilities. Due to the strength to weight ratio of carbon fiber, the CTsw has a useful load of 600 lbs., almost equal to its empty weight.

Safety The CTsw has been certified to 3 international Airworthiness standards and was developed by Flight Design’s professional engineering staff with safety utmost in their minds. The structure of the CTsw is over 90% carbon fiber and Kevlar which provides superior pilot and passenger protection. Four-point safety harnesses, wing located fuel tanks and the standard BRS 1350 HS parachute system are just a few of the well thought out safety features of this state-of-the-art aircraft.
