Airplane Will Be Presented In Long Beach At Next Year's
Summit
AOPA officials took the wraps off their 2010 Sweepstakes Prize
today revealing a new Remos GX. The two-seat, high wing, carbon
fiber aircraft will be awarded to a Sweepstakes winner during the
2010 AOPA Summit in Long Beach, California.
In discussing the reasons behind selecting a Remos GX as a
prize, AOPA President Craig Fuller said: "For the 2010 sweepstakes,
we wanted to focus on the fun and recreational aspects of GA
flying, and the Remos GX is truly fun to fly. At the same time it
offers exceptional safety equipment, incredible fuel efficiency, a
high useful load, a full avionics package, and plenty of other
impressive features. It's a plane any pilot would love to fly."
Remos CEO Corvin Huber expressed pleasure with AOPA's
Sweepstakes decision: "To be honored as the new centerpiece for a
sweepstakes that has recently offered a distinguished list of
aircraft like the Cherokee Six, Cessna Cardinal, Archer and Cirrus,
shows that the Remos has reached a level of popularity that clearly
places it as the leader in its class. Remos has been placing more
GXs on the flightline than all other two-place airplanes in the
past year and is taking a point position in the future of General
Aviation. AOPA has recognized the value of Remos for flight
training, recreational flying and even cross country
transportation. We are pleased to be a part of their effort to
reach out to the general public with an invitation to take up
flying."
