It is time to make some sort of balance after the official launch of the Shock Cub, happened exactly six months ago. A well known aviation journalist, asked us recently, how is going with this product and our intentions for the future. The Shock Cubs sold are 26 at this time, (99% ready to fly).

Finally we got the first (prototype) 915iS according to the “Rotax development engine program” , planned by the engine manufacturer, for the next incoming months.. We will be trained and allowed to install this engine soon for preliminary ground tests, and only later, after several steps to be followed, we will be authorized to test fly it.It will be installed on a new Shock Cub since many of them, have been already sold, taking in mind this specific engine. We are really excited by this important arrival since we beleive that this engine will elevate dramatically the level of Hyper STOL performances of our planes.

While our first American Shock Cub (“Outback Shock” is the name for the American market ) is almost ready for the first flight (equipped with the TITAN 340 engine), we are very proud to announce in cooperation with our American dealer, the arrival of a new dealer for the State of Alaska…As you know in Alaska, “bushflying” is not just another way to fly…”

As usual, a nice organization and a favourable meteo, has allowed last weekend, a nice German Savage meeting …Tks to Mr. Tom Huber and his friends to have planned this nice event, even for this year..It was a fantastic occasion to meet eachother and share personal experiences ..

In about ten days, finally will be available in USA the first Shock Cub . The plane equipped with a powerful Titan 180 hp, is the first Shock Cub covered with “Oratex 6000” system and painted with original  Oracover colors due to the presence of a nice paint scheme. In USA the Shock Cub is officially named Outback Shock. For more informations and details pls contact our local dealer, Mr. Bill Canino or visit their official website

Delivered in Germany the first “super light” Savage Cruiser . Equipped for the first time with Oracover system and including several options engineered and produced by us
to lower as much as possible the final empty weight (just for example carbon seats and full carbon floorboards and engine cowling, plus composite tail leave etc) , we are glad to announce to all interested customers that the final weight recorded, was 290,7 kg. Ready to fly with Rotax 100 hp.

From our South African dealer:

at Flying Frontiers, we have a motto “Dream, Explore, Discover”. In May, we truly lived by this motto, and spent 2 incredible weeks flying the backcountry of South Africa and Namibia. 60 flying hours and 7000km’s later, we arrived home having put our flying skills and our aircraft thoroughly through their paces, and came home the wiser for it, and in absolute awe of the wonderful continent we live on and the incredibly friendly and helpful people we encounter on trips like this.

Some nice “in flight” pics, taken in cooperation with a famous photographer are available in the media section.A “man” that become a friend now and our official Shock Cub photographer.. He has taken something close to 600 pics. Some are now available showing the real attitude of this 95 hp equipped Shock Cub.Tks “Steen”…

We are doing our best to extract step by step the “real Stol performances” of our new Shock Cub (we think to have achived about 70% of this potential at the moment).

The technical characteristics and a short video clip are finally available. Configurator will be online during the next few hours. Video link is now available in “media” section.
