Things could hardly be looking better for the aerobatic world’s latest monoplane King. Introduced at Oshkosh 2019, the Extra NG is Walter Extra’s pivotal effort to date. The largely carbon fiber airframe offers two seats in tandem, conventional gear, and stuffs 315 HP in the business end, all hauled along at cruise speeds as high as 200 knots.
Built to be a performer, Walter did not ignore creature comforts in its design, knowing that aerobatics can be punishing, so he therefore built a comfortable platform that can push as much at 10 Gs -- positive AND negative while still allowing for comfy cruising when you have to travel. And face it, Extras have never been accused of being less than wildly maneuverable, but the NG steps it up a few notches... rolling so fast that it could put an F-16 to shame. Extra is repped by Southeast Aero here in the US, under the watchful eye of Kramer Upchurch, and offers delivery, training and maintenance for the entire Extra aerobatic series and the close community built around these rugged, highly competitive airplanes.
