| Wrightsair, the Australian outback, Alice Springs and Lake Eyre flight specialist, welcomed the GA8 Airvan to its fleet in September 2000. Owner/operator Trevor Wright said the company was very pleased to be flying the newest model plane in Australia. "We are a distinctly Australian company and the GA8 Airvan is 100% Australian designed and made, so it’s very appropriate for us. It’s rugged country in central Australia and we need an aircraft that can handle rough terrain. We often stop at small outback towns where there is no real airstrip at all, so we need an aircraft that land and take off on a short airstrip. The GA8 suits our requirements down to the ground." "The huge cabin is another advantage, it also has panoramic windows for excellent views, an aisle way for easy access, plus personal headset." For more information visit www.wrightsair.com.au |
