Design and development

Designed for STOL operations in the Australian outback and cattle mustering, the Bushman features a strut-braced high-wing, a two-seats-in-tandem enclosed cockpit, fixed conventional landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration.[1]

The aircraft is made from aluminium all-metal construction. Its 9 m (29.5 ft) span wing employs flaps and is supported by V-struts with jury struts. The standard engine is the 115 hp (86 kW) Rotax 914 four-stroke powerplant. The landing gear is of a trailing idler-link design. Tundra tires are usually fitted for off-airport operations.[1]
