experimental aircraft now have the green light to apply to Cuba for landing permits.
There are no “experimental” aircraft in Cuba, unless you want to count the 1946 Antonov AN-2 Bi-planes that are still operating on the island, say officials with Caribbean Flying Adventures.Īfter an education campaign by officials with Caribbean Flying Adventures, who have worked with the Cubans for 15 years to obtain Cuban overflight and landing permits for U.S. When Cuban Civil Aviation authorities in Havana viewed their first “special” airworthiness certificate with “experimental” and “amateur built” across the top of the certificate, alarms bells began clanging.
To obtain a Cuban landing permit, it is necessary to produce a copy of the aircraft airworthiness certificate, among other documents. I have been looking at the performance of Mooney M20F and M20J, these aircraft seem like a great balance of perfomance and economy (great fuel consumption), i've read some articles debunking a lot of the bad rep they have with maintenance and every day they seem like a better option.General aviation is relatively new to Cuba. I would like an airplane that i can grow into (but no too much airplane) and a solid IFR platform that i can use to fly around the Caribbean (based in Puerto Rico).
but getting realistic, i would like to stay around $100k tops. I'm thinking about getting my first airplaine in 4-5 years, and i have pretty much considered everthing from a cherokee 140 to a cessna 210. I know i'm getting a little ahead of myself, but i've been thinking about this for a long time, i guess i just want to do it right the first time.
