CAP-21 - I-IZAK

A good opportunity at cheap price to get into the aerobatic world. This type of Mudry CAP is not subject to the expensive "grande visite".

The CAP-21 has a similar power to weight ratio as the Extra 300, with improved control harmony (especially in yaw) and an unparalleled ability to maintain large sideslip angles. Roll rate is slower than an Extra, but the feel of the aircraft is incredibly well harmonized with balanced control forces and deflections. The steerable tailwheel provides excellent directional control in crosswinds, and visibility on the ground is very good. Overall performance is similar to the Lazer Z-200 series, but with the pleasing flying qualities associated with French aircraft.

Annual inspection expired. Not flown for a few years, last engine run early February 2025 with no problems observed. Engine is operational "on condition" hence a lowish price expected for the aircraft. On request I can send the documentation via a Google download file. Aircraft offered "as is, where is" , as the owner does not want the expense and inconvenience of obtaining the C of A - however this will not be an onerous task. You are very welcome to make a pre-purchase intense inspection of the aircraft and documents at Florence airport.

TTAF at last annual 3176:13
TTE 2309:53 and 1053 SMOH
Propeller TT 818:44 and 86:59 SMOH

Serious offers considered.
