Sky Arrow delivers options for disabled pilots

By General Aviation News Staff · June 23, 2006 ·

The Sky Arrow has become the first LSA produced for the U.S. market with a disabled pilot option.

Manufactured by Iniziative Industriali Italiane (3I) in Italy, the Sky Arrow’s disabled pilot option allows pilots who cannot operate the rudder pedals with their feet to apply yaw input with a left side-stick that also includes a throttle control. The standard right side-stick controls pitch and bank and also has buttons for electric rudder and elevator trim, as well as radio push to talk. The brake levers are controlled by the right hand.
