A-22 LS Foxbat
Wilco Aviation is pleased to present to the market a delightful example of an Aeroprakt A-22 LS Foxbat. Exclusively listed with us, G-CHHB is situated at our home base in Henstridge, Somerset, in the picturesque South West of England.
Distinguished by its vibrant red spat ‘shoes,’ reminiscent of the iconic character from the 1939 film “The Wizard of Oz,” this aircraft is affectionately known among enthusiasts as ‘Dorothy.’
The Aeroprakt A-22 Foxbat is a Ukrainian-designed two-seat, high-wing, tricycle landing gear ultralight aircraft created by Yuri Yakovlev and manufactured by Aeroprakt. In the United States, the A-22 is recognized as the Valor, while in the UK and Australia, it is referred to as the Foxbat. Additionally, it has been marketed under the name Vision. The Aeroprakt A-22 is available either as a factory-built “ready-to-fly” aircraft or as a kit comprising 152 components, which can be assembled in approximately 500 man-hours.
The A-22 is constructed primarily from metal, incorporating composite materials for the engine cowling, wing fillets, and wheel spats. Its wing upper surfaces are aluminum-covered, while the lower surfaces are fabric-covered. All control surfaces are covered with fabric on both top and bottom, enhancing visibility through the ample glazing, which includes convex doors for direct viewing below. Featuring a 3-axis control system, the A-22 provides the pilot with full control of the aircraft. Instead of ailerons and flaps, flaperons are used, resulting in a stall speed of approximately 28 knots when fully deployed. Dual controls are integrated through a central "Y" yoke control system.
Charlie Hotel is powered by a low-hour 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912ULS engine, delivering exceptional short-field performance.
‘Dorothy’ truly embodies the joy of flying with its agility, cost-effectiveness, and overall delightful flying experience.
