  • NEWS RELEASE Continental Aerospace Technologies
    NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Release Continental Aerospace Technologies™ announces partnership with Piper Aircraft® to launch the Pilot 100 training aircraft Mobile, Alabama, April 2, 2019 — Continental®, an AVIC International Holding (HK) LTD company (HKEX: 232.HK), announces the partnership with Piper Aircraft® to launch the Pilot 100 and Pilot 100i training aircraft. Piper Aircraft® has selected the certified Continental IO-370-DA3A engine for the new Pilot 100/100i single engine trainer. After careful consideration, Piper® determined that the engine met their requirements to answer increasing requests from flight schools of all sizes for a robust, proven trainer platform at a lower price point in both VFR and IFR configurations With an all-time high demand for new pilots, Piper Aircraft® has announced the Pilot 100/100i, to meet the needs of a wide variety of training schools and curriculums. Based on the PA-28 airframe, one of the most successful training platforms in the history of general aviation, Piper® combined an airframe, avionics and engine package that allows the aircraft to be very aggressively priced and fills the need for a trainer tailored to the primary single- engine training needs of these schools. The Pilot 100/100i allows schools to invest in new initial trainers at a price point that is compatible with their needs while relying on a proven and tried design. “We congratulate Piper Aircraft® for their vision, ability to gauge the market trends, and their commitment to the training market. We are very excited to collaborate with Piper® on the new certified engine design. We worked with the Piper® engineering team to make sure that they benefit not only from an outstanding value, but also from all the enhancements that we have incorporated in our new engine line.

  • The Danish Cub Aircraft Co. Ltd
    1 The Danish Cub Aircraft Co. Ltd. By the mid-thirties the recession in Denmark had receded to such a degree that some business people felt that private flying might start to take of. In 1937, Jack Hedegaard, a Danish/American engineer returned from the U.S. with a license from the Taylor Aircraft Company to build the Taylor Cub aircraft in Scandinavia and a specimen Taylor J-2 aircraft. The aircraft with c/n 339 was assembled by the Kramme workshops and registered on 10.7.37 as OY-DUL, but Hedegaard, had problems with financing, so in 1937 a consortium led by automobile dealer Chr. Bohnstedt-Petersen, who had already founded a car assembly factory for Chrysler and Daimler-Benz in Copenhagen and who since 1919 had a flying license, signed a contract with the Piper Aircraft Company to take over the agency for Scandinavia (the American company had changed its name to Piper Aircraft Company, after the director in USA, Mr. Piper, procured Mr. Taylors share in the company.) The former military airfield at Lundtofte north of Copenhagen, including two hangars was rented from the Ministry of War for 20 years. The plan for the new company named “Cub Aircraft Co.Ltd” called for using the airfield, the two hangars there and the old Rohrbach hangar from Copenhagen Airport to assemble the Cub-sports aircraft. The Danish company would assemble aircraft from kits supplied from USA and it was planned to re-export the majority of the aircraft to the Scandinavian countries. In September 1937 Jack Hedegaard went to USA in order to procure tools and kits and to obtain experience in assembling the aircraft.
