Cessna 188 Gets A (Turbo) Boost With Soloy Turbine Pac

Industrial Aviation Receives Restricted Airworthiness Certification For Mod

Industrial Aviation Services’ Soloy Turbine Pac powered Cessna 188 completes its first 100 hours of trouble free revenue service. Industrial Aviation designed and manufactured the custom installation and gained FAA approval in the restricted airworthiness category. The installation includes the first ever use of the Soloy gearbox auxiliary power takeoff pad with a hydraulic pump that in this case drives the aircraft’s agricultural system.

  

Industrial Aviation Services built the Turboprop version of the Cessna 188 to study the suitability of small turbine powered fixed wing aircraft for agricultural aviation. The study will evaluate the long term effects of turbine operation on the aircraft’s productivity, operating costs and the effects, if any, on the suitability of existing support equipment.

Soloy develops and manufactures turbine engine technology for a variety of existing, older-model rotary and fixed-wing aircraft.
