Pilots can be trained in all conditions, day or night, in instrument flying, navigation flying. The time-tested classic, flown for over 40 years and now modified, comes in its most luxurious version with magnificent leather seats, fully integrated dual Garmin G500 (dual VOR/LOC/GS/ADC, dual VHF radio) and air conditioning, offering the highest levels of safety, redundancy, parallelism in training and comfort in its price class. A flight data recorder (integrated with G500 and MVP-50P) and a cockpit voice recorder, indispensable for debriefing and analysis, as well as DME are available on request. Powered by a four-cylinder, 210 hp air-cooled Lycoming IO -390-А3А6 engine and a fixed-speed two-bladed metal Hartzell HC–C 2 YR -1 B FP/F 7894 propeller, this aircraft offers a great balance between performance and fuel economy. When properly leaned, the SOVA 100LL consumes less than 35 l/h (9.2 USG/h) of avgas, making long flights (over 4 hours with a full tank) easy on the wallet.
