The J6 Fregata motorglider from
Poland has emerged from a collaboration between Wojciech Jeriorski and
designer and manufacturer Jaroslaw Janowski, who heads J & AS Aero Design
Ltd.
This interesting aircraft, which uses a redesigned Honda 52hp at 6000rpm
motorboat engine, flies at 191km/h with a fuel consumption of six to
eight litres per hour.
This gives enough power for take-off and has a fuel capacity of 60 litres.
Its wingspan is 12.55m with a maximum weight of 410kg.
The LD is around 20 to 22:1 and in 160 hours of test flying it has soared
well in thermals and wave.
Three experimental Fregata’s have been built and the aircraft is awaiting
a JAR 22 certification.
