Hawker Pacific’s Tony Jones said: “This is the second aircraft to be sold from the demonstration tour, the first being a DA40-XLS which we sold in May this year to another flight training school based in QLD. Diamonds are incredibly durable, cost effective machines and, fitted with the latest leading technologies, will no doubt be the global training aircraft of choice for the foreseeable future.”
Equipped with twin Ae300 turbo diesel engines, the DA42-NG is renowned for its fuel economy and range, making it well-suited to cross-country flying.
