| Abstract: |
| Design and costing plan for production of a two-seater aircraft that can be manufactured completely in Pakistan, only using materials, processes and resources already available within the country. |
| What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ? |
| The Pakistani industry is essentially consumerist, and produces very little of its own. This specially holds true for the General Aviation aircraft industry, where Pakistan has a single manufacturing company, and that too just assembles component imported from abroad. |
| Who needs it ? How many would benefit ? |
| There is a dire need in the Pakistani industry for local products. In addition, the economic impact of a blossoming aircraft industry can be immense. It could be a game changer for the industry, bringing benefits for thousands of people across various domains, including pilots and engineers. |
| How will the solution works |
| The current project is a two-seater, single 4-cylinder engine aircraft that is targeted at the leisure pilot. This aircraft will be designed by our team in a way that it can be manufactured within Pakistan, with some off the shelf components. The aircraft will have a bubble canopy and cable-actuated flight controls. |
| Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different |
| The main competitors of this aircraft will be the Cessna 152. Our aircraft will be considerably cheaper than the 152 while also providing locally available repair services and spare parts. |
