Parrot

Of conventional all-metal design, the Parrot is built by European craftsmen, with US-sourced materials. The Rotax 912ULS puts out 100 reliable horsepower while burning well under 5 gph. The useful load is over 500 pounds, and the large baggage area is located nearly on the CG, to make its capacity truly usable. The wide cockpit is comfortable; and it affords a large panel area.

Parrot Facts

The fast yet docile air manners are made possible by a streamlined fuselage and modern-design airfoil that provides very high lift and low drag, throughout the Parrots’s speed range. This wing, coupled to fowler flaps, permits landings and take-off on land on a very short distance.

Everything about the Parrot indicates long and reliable service: full zinc chromate coating, AN and MS-series fasteners, US-sourced aircraft aluminum and tubing; and its solid, conventional design promises not only outstanding longevity – it is repairable anywhere, without relying on “special” production and inspection techniques.
