A new great addition to the simmers’ hangars by the company which is developing the Cirrus SR22 and has already released the PocketRocket, the iconic BN-2 Islander is now available.
This light aircraft, powered by two Lycoming O-540 piston engines, is perfect for short hauls across small islands, and it’s still widely used despite the fact that it has been conceived in the 60s.
