Riley Super Skyrocket !

[rrolland]

Michel:

I own a standard Riley Rocket which is the same aircraft as the Super Rocket with the exception of the engines. The systems are the same, the complexity the same.

If your aircraft is flown regularly and maintained appropriately, it will be reliable. And an incredible performer with the extra power. Single Engine rate of climb should be in excess of 500PFM.

The same drawbacks will exist: it is tight under both cowlings and access often requires removing other components and...patience.

You will need to find a mechanic who does not mind the challenge.

Payload will be in exchange of range. This is true of the Rocket as well but more so for the Super Rocket. Some of the Super Rockets have limited payload left at full fuel. So the payload comes off the fuel load.

It all depends on your mission.

Enjoy the Super Rocket!
