Fafali 1000 - is a 2-seat, side-by-side conventional tractor layout airframe, and will be brought to market as a 600kg BCAR/S LSM and 750kg CS-VLA model. This was announced in 2023, and our prototype is expected to commence flight tests in 2025 with production and sales starting in 2026. Target entry price is £125,000 for a ready-to-fly 130hp Fafali 1000 LSM and £155,000 for the 180hp Fafali 1000 VLA.
Fafali 2000 - is the hybrid version of Fafali 1000, with up to 100hp boost power enabling it to operate out of the shortest and roughest strips around the world. We expect the first hybrid flights to occur before 2030.
Fafali 3000 and Fafali 4000 are our 3- and 4-seat aircraft (planned to enter development in 2030 or sooner, funding permitting) that will build on the structures and developments of Fafali 1000 and 2000. These will be aimed directly at the surveillance and humanitarian markets, with adaptations specifically developed for operations in developing nations. It is expected that these models will be offered as CS23 aircraft. It is expected that these models will offer state of the art powerplant and energy storage systems ready to meet the 2050 nett zero aviation ambitions.
Design and development o these state-of-the-art aircraft is done in house through our sister company, Metal Seagulls and their production cell using 4- and 5-axis high precision CNC machines, and a 'raw-material-to-finished-product' low carbon production ethos. We aim to have one of the lowest carbon footprints in light aviation production as well as the most recyclable airframe.
We are looking at the possibility of putting assembly plants in South Africa and Ghana in the coming years.
