2023 ICP Aviazone Savannah

Structure

The Savannah™ ADV is a monoplane type, with two side-by-side seats, fitted with a high wing supported by struts.

The wings are trapezoidal with aerodynamic profile NACA 23015, provided with twist & dihedral & its lift system consists of slats on the leading edge & double-slot flap on the trailing one.

The slats slide on 4 ways operated by the same amount of levers, which are handled by a torque tube.

The horizontal empennage is tapered & it consist of a fixed stabilizer & a moving balancer. Both the fixed part & the moving one are carried out in two half planes. The left balancer is provided with trim wing & motor located in the front housing of the elevator with position indicator.

Cockpit

The two large lateral doors allow an easy independent access to the cabin.

The visibility has been improved thanks to a new lexan window in the lower part of the door.

The cockpit is completely sound insulated, with lining in upholstery, canvas or fitted carpet.

The seats are in skin or in upholstery or in canvas & side by side type.

The luggage van, situated behind the seats & accessible during the flight, may contain up to 45 lbs (20 kilograms).

It’s possible to improve the cabin ventilation by using two rotating air scoops in the doors windows. – Heating system with control on the dashboard.

Cabin light.

Landing Gear

The main landing gear is made by a single-piece aluminium alloy single-leaf leg.

The nose landing gear is fitted with a telescopic, elastic chord shock absorber, & is steerable in order to ease the taxiing.

The hydraulic drum brakes are independent & operate on the main landing gear’s wheels.

Engine / Propeller Group

The fuel system is provided with an additional electric pump shielded anti-heat.

Safety Equipment

It is possible to install a parachute “Junkers 500” softpack type.

The flaps control has a torsion pipe that causes a linkage between the kinematism on the right half-wing & on the left one.

By causing the flaps rotation, the extraction of the slats is carried out at the same time.

Both the high-lift device & the trim are electrically actionable. Moreover there is a mechanic control manually actionable that permits the operation of the high-lift device in case of emergency.
