This plane is made in Canada and is the most rugged Bush plane built today. The Bush Hawk-XP is built from the ground up for the kind of flying we do here in Alaska. Features include Large panoramic windows for the best viewing, (windows that are 4-5 times bigger than any Cessna) One-piece wing so strong that they do not require Lift struts that get in the way of passenger viewing, ample doors for entry and exit.

All passengers are surrounded by a steel cage for added safety.

The wing is a one piece with a strong I beam as it mounts to the frame.

This aircraft was designed in the 1960's by the Found brothers with some help from a couple of engineers from DeHavilland, the company that produced the famous Beaver. This design was then modernized and brought back into production in the late 1990's.

Believe me when I say there there is nothing like having new when it comes to this kind of equipment. The aircraft that I fly was built in the fall of 2005 and was a dealer demo when I purchased it in January of 2008. I choose to make this commitment to my passengers: to have the best aircraft that I can fly.
