Pioneer 300 Griffon + Rotax 915 iS Limited Edition 1/200, the quest for perfection

Sir. Walter Raleigh Alexander, English poet and author, claimed that the engine is the heart of an airplane, but the pilot is its soul. If this is true, the Pioneer 300 Griffon – Rotax 915 iS combination, can only be spot on and exceed the expectations of our privileged customer.

What we want to present to you is not our first aircraft equipped with the powerful 140 hp turbo injection engine, but it is the only aircraft equipped with the engine serial number 1/200 of the 915 iS LIMITED EDITION that celebrates the centenary of Rotax, supplied to us by the Italian distributor, Luciano Sorlini spa.

 

 

To celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the company’s, Rotax – world leader in the production of aircraft engines for light and ultralight aircraft – has chosen to produce a “Limited Edition” of its top of the range engines, combining a special design with an exclusive package of services which includes:

  • 3 year warranty extension / TBO (see Rotax terms and conditions)
  • Two 100 hour maintenance kits
  • A 200 hour maintenance kit
  • Voucher for the dedicated merchandise collection

This specific aircraft will go to New Zealand, a market already consolidated for us, with particular attention to innovation and design.
To make it even more unique, our Sales team opted for an adhesive livery in glossy red and matte black with a honeycomb texture and two-tone leather interior. Additional details that bring out the design and uniqueness of this Pioneer 300 Griffon.

 

 

The photo session was exciting, the result of the team within our company and the hospitality of the Lualdi Foundation at the Osoppo airport, which was the setting for a wonderful day. The performance of the Griffon is undisputed, an evolution of the Pioneer 300 range that maintains the company’s philosophy of offering an aircraft with an elegant design, with excellent maneuverability, fast but at the same time safe and easy to handle even at low speeds.
