„First thing we noticed was the excellent craft made of the aircraft focused on details. It is obvious that Direct Fly has been on the LSA market for some time now and their products belong among quality aircraft.“
Our Alto with serial number DF115 has been flying in Slovakian ULpilot flight school for some time now. So we were very happy to see a new article on famous aviation website Gonzo Aviation about above mentioned flight school and the new addition to their fleet. The article is in Slovakian, so if you are familiar with the language you can read the whole article here.
For those speaking neither Slovak nor Czech (which are two quite similar languages), we’ve translated a few parts of the interview mentioning our Alto below for you.
“So what’s the Alto 912 TG really like? Our first impression can be expressed in the words that the Alto with it’s size and an MTOW of 600 kg rather belongs to the higher category of aircraft. Only with a difference of almost half the price of comparable certified machines. And not only the forward sliding canopy gives us the impression of a small Z-142. The aircraft cabin is so spacious, that even two tall men will be comfortable in it. And comfort is important as with full tanks, the Alto’s range is approximately 900 km.
It was obvious from the first flight that the Alto 912 TG is very suitable aircraft for flight schools. The biggest advantages are nice flight characteristics, low stall speed and mostly the fact, that the aircraft is stable in all flight modes, which is really important for new pilots and students.
Among others the Slovakian Alto is equipped with glass cockpit and autopilot by Kanardia, radio and transponder by Trig, ground adjustable Fiti Eco Competition propeller or parachute rescue system Galaxy GRS. And more over the aircraft is not only pretty from the inside but also on the outside. It is one of the first metallic Alto’s with the new design.”
