The
Cobalt Co50 Valkyrie, got
the performance, and efficiency to back up the looks.
The
single-engine piston plane can reach 260 knots (around 300 mph), and
stay in the sky for up to 1,050 nautical miles (1,200 miles). Compared
to other personal aircrafts, it’s about 20 mph quicker, and slightly
more efficient.
The
other thing that makes this plane unique is the setup. The engine sits
at the rear, meaning unlike many other personal planes, the Valkyrie
feels more like a jet; quieter, and limited on vibration. And the design
keeps the Top Gun theme going.
“Pilots
flying Cobalt’s Valkyrie will appreciate the beautiful, expansive
visibility above and below,” says Cobalt. “Valkyrie has the largest
one-piece canopy in the world and unrivaled visibility with a 320-degree
view.”
Open
up that F-16-like canopy, and the ex-Hermes crafted interior mimics
something you’d find in a modern day fighter jet. A glass instrument
panel, an iPad holder, sidestick flight controls, seating for five, and
an anti-ice system, just to name a few features.
While
everything about the Valkyrie sounds extremely promising, the company
won’t be launching the new aircraft until 2017.
