Australian Lightwing GR 532

Aircraft description

Hughes Engineering designed and built a range of recreational light sport and experimental kit aircraft. With stable, easy-to-fly characteristics, sturdy design and affordable operating costs, the GR532 was the initial model with the 65HP liquid cooled, rotary valve 2-stroke engine.

This delightful Australian Lightwing has had significant recent works, including: re-enforced fabric, poly spray and poly tone re-spray, replaced cables, struts corrosion checked, airframe and control surface bolts replaced, new Radiator and hoses, new fuel pumps and hoses, instruments re-wired, MATCO rims and brakes, new seat belts and a new battery. Ready to fly under experimental rules (E-25), this aircraft will suit recreational flying, low-level surveying or short-field agricultural farm operations. The aircraft has been fitted to a container (included in sale), and is ready for transport, or to fly away.
