Description
This well-maintained 1960 Jodel DR-1050 Ambassadeur is a classic and efficient touring aircraft, combining excellent short-field performance with economical operation. The aircraft underwent a comprehensive ground-up restoration in 2020 and has since been kept in very clean condition.
Powered by a Continental O-200-A engine, the aircraft offers a comfortable cruise speed of approximately 185 km/h while maintaining a low fuel consumption of around 20 liters per hour. With two fuel tanks providing a total capacity of 110 liters, the aircraft offers an endurance of up to 5 hours, making it well suited for cross-country flights.
The restoration included extensive work on both the interior and exterior. The interior features new leather seats, a redesigned instrument panel, and a completely renewed electrical system. Numerous components such as control cables, door seals, and brake cylinders were replaced, ensuring a high level of reliability and comfort.
The exterior was fully refurbished with new Ceconite fabric covering, fresh paint while maintaining the aircraft’s classic appearance with its original wheel pants.
With its solid wooden airframe structure, modernized avionics, and careful restoration, this Jodel DR-1050 Ambassadeur represents a rare opportunity to own a classic aircraft that combines vintage charm with practical performance and efficient operating costs.
