| The craft is the next generation of trike,
using the latest in CAD design technology, composite materials,
Rotax aircraft engines, and is built on a modular wire mesh
structure. John has been involved in the
trike section of ultralight aviation since the late 70's, and
currently operates an FBO flight school in Arizona. In the mid 90's
he went out and purchased a number of different trikes, and put them
through their paces to decided what unit he wanted to use in his
school.
The Air Creation trikes came out rated number 1.
Currently they produce 2 versions of their single seat trikes plus 6
version of their two seat craft. The latest model being the
Tanarg.
The Tanarg has a welded stainless steel chassis,
similar to that of a modern motorcycle. Attached to the chassis are
the swing arms for the suspension system, and fuselage etc.
In the Tanarg your feet are no longer on the forks
like on a conventional trike. Instead they are on a rack pin
steering system. Which can be adjusted for pilots from 5' 2" to over
6' 8".
The Tanarg can be powered by the ROTAX 582, 2
stroke 65 HP engine equipped with an E gear box using a 4:1 ratio
and a four-bladed High Tech ARPLAST propeller.
It can also be equipped with the ROTAX 912 series
of engines which are equipped with a 2.43:1 reduction ratio and a
three-bladed ARPLAST propeller. These engine and prop combinations
are very efficient and quiet.
A variety of wings are available depending on how
the pilot wants to fly. With cruise trim speeds ranging from 45 to
72 mph. Floats are also available for those wanting to fly on water.
Training bars are available for the Tanarg, and
rear seat controls for steering, throttle, and ignition switch are
standard.
The craft comes from the factory built ready to
fly.
