FK14 Polaris
FK14 Polaris
The FK14 Polaris is a high performance cruiser, allowing the pilot a comfortable
but superior flying experience.
In addition to its modern design, the Polaris is outstanding not only because of
its unique panoramic view, but also by its low fuel consumption.
Proven in many competitions and air races - the Polaris is able to beat most of its
competitors - no matter if tuned by variable pitch props or retractable landing
gears!
A large one-piece hood opens the cabin easily with the help of gas springs and
permits easy boarding.
The canopy is made from a special UV protection plexi and provides a
360°panoramic view. Ergo-nomic and adjustable bucket seats are shaped for
long journeys and comfort. The cockpit is designed for a maximum of space and
can accommoda-te very tall pilots.
A modern, electric fowler flap system allows to extend wing surface for short
takeoffs and landings up to 20%.
This makes cruising speeds of up to 250 km/h possible as well as take offs from
shorter runways.
Vortex generators at the wingtips do improve control efficiency at low speeds.
