It will fit in a 35 foot t-hanger and will come fully equipped with fadec, Garmin glass, autopilot, and parachute . The rotary, dyno-reciprocating engine will have 7000hr tbo. It will be fully certified in Dec 2017. I am taking deposits now for only $20,000. Cost of the final product will be $65,000 but if you pay now the cost will only be $35,000.

This sounds just as plausible as most new airplane announcements.

Cobalt has ceased operations in July 2018.

The Valkyrie aircraft is now entirely designed, tested and manufactured in California by Centauri Aircraft Company, Inc., owned and managed by David Loury, with the ongoing help of its Early Adopters.


I don't see any public website or news regarding this new company. Seems like that project might be dead.

It would be interesting to hear what happened - was it primarily a financing/investment failure? technology? design? management? the prototype's accident? regulations?

They did have a flying prototype which is further along than some project are able to get. They were planning a certified model alongside the experimental, but if FAA was slowing them down it seems like they could have continued on the experimental side at least.

I saw an all black Travel Air or Twin Bo (I think TB) at OshKosh one year. Baddest looking plane I've ever seen. Lord Vader, your Beechcraft is ready.



All black looks great.

I once had a Charcoal grey Buick Centurion with a black vinyl interior that would give you second degree burns if you wore shorts in summertime.

Black cars generally go for a 10-20% discount around my part of Texas.
