Meet the A32 Vixxen

A closer look at the aircraft, its design and its possibilities.

All-Flying Tailplane

There are three main reasons for introducing an all-flying tail plane on the A32 with anti-servo tab – the first on an Aeroprakt aircraft. First, control forces and trim drag are reduced. Second, an all-flying tail is simpler to produce; fewer moving parts means greater reliability. Finally, it has some aerodynamic advantages over a fixed stabiliser/elevator combination enabling more precise control of the aircraft – particularly when taking off and landing.

Fully sealed doors

The door design incorporates composite frames with convex polycarbonate transparencies, which seal against the airframe to keep noise and aerodynamic drag to a minimum.There is also a special design of door handle mechanism which requires no spring-loading, increasing service life and giving easy access and secure closing.

Huge Cabin Area

It’s probably the biggest, airiest cabin in its class. This means that whether you’re learning, or flying with a friend, you’re not jammed shoulder to shoulder, the controls are easier to use, and room to move makes for greater safety all round.

Performance

Class leading speed range. 27kts stall - 115kts cruise. Great for farm strip flying with 100m take off and landing capability. 5-6hr fuel range so also an excellent touring aircraft.

High-set Seats

The high-set seats have two significant benefits for pilots and co-pilots alike – a great view over the nose and excellent knee room. These benefits have been achieved without compromising one of Aeroprakt’s great signature benefits – there’s no need to duck your head to see under the wing when you’re flying the aircraft. The seats, which tilt forward for luggage access, have storage pockets behind the back-rests and are adjustable fore and aft using a spring locator at the front of the seat.

Light and Airy Cabin

The windscreen curves up level with the top of wing, resulting in excellent headroom and refined aerodynamics. The fuselage 'monocoque' needs no diagonal struts inside the windshield, so there is an unimpeded, panoramic view forward. Additionally, there is no horizontal cross-member behind the seats, resulting in easy seat positioning and a low CofG for the luggage compartment in the floor behind the seats.

It has a Metal Airframe

So? In two words, safety & durability. An all-metal airframe has good impact characteristics. Metal will bend and absorb forces before shattering, helping to protect occupants in the event of an accident. Unlike composite or wooden aircraft, metal is not susceptible to structural changes caused by UV radiation, high temperatures/humidity and other weather effects.
