From Air To Land, Sea, Or Snow - Lisa Akoya Luxury Light Plane (GALLERY)
[Edit]
[Edit]
Looking for your next new private plane? For a cool $430,000 you could own a sleek new composite constructed aircraft capable of landing on land, snow and sea.
“Designed to fly from airstrip to yacht to ski slope, the sporty multi-access amphibian caters perfectly to the business/leisure niche of the very wealthy,” GizMag said. “Entirely built from high-tech composite materials and capable of landing on a mere 100-metre strip, the luxurious Akoya also features a swivelling wing to make it storable in a narrow garage or on a yacht.”
Recently completing its first test flights, Lisa’s Akoya aircraft is already in high demand from buyers keen to own the first aircraft designed to land on ground, water or even snow. The Akoya’s wheels and snow skis retract to seal the aircraft’s hull, which, equipped with small hydrofoils, gives the plane decent water manners.
The hefty €300,000 price tag will include the aircraft, the ULM license required to fly it, training from Lisa’s own specialists in water and snow takeoffs and landings, a personalized painting, a footbridge to a water-based pontoon and several accessories. With 45 of the craft expected to be produced before the end of 2009, Lisa are already predicting they won’t be able to satisfy demand.
