Angelo Gabriel launched by Blackshape
Italian high-tech aerospace company Blackshape revealed a new aircraft at AERO today, the Blackshape Gabriel BK160. Like the existing Blackshape Prime, the Gabriel has an all-carbon fibre composite airframe with two seats in tandem.
The Gabriel has been certified by EASA to CS-VLA (Very Light Aeroplanes) issued just two days ago (3 April 2017). It is a single-engine, low-wing aircraft with retractable undercarriage and a Hartzell Raptor variable pitch prop, powered by a 160hp Lycoming IO-320 engine.
