Accompanied by his brother Peter, they made Horsham in double-quick time, cruising at 110 kts.

The A32\u00a0only burned 33 litres from Tyabb to Horsham. That&#8217;s 17 litres less than the A22LS and an average of 20 knots faster. Yuriy has clearly waved\u00a0his aerodynamic genius over the A32.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Two more A32s are arriving at Moorabbin next week &#8211; another one for Broken Hill, plus a school aircraft for Coffs Harbour. More in due course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 5th Aeroprakt A32 Vixxen in Australia is on its way to its new owner in Broken Hill.
