The Т-101 Gratsch is a STOL multi-purpose aircraft developed by ROKS-Aero (from 1993: Aeroprogress) and manufactured by MiG-MAPO in a small series.
history
The interpretation of Grach ( Russian Грач , dt. " Rook ") began in September 1991 in the last days of the Soviet Union with the aim of one on the concept of two An-Antonov / An-3 -based multi-purpose aircraft to provide that should replace these . The construction of a prototype began in April 1992 at ROKS-Aero, founded in Moscow in 1990 and renamed Aeroprogress in 1993. After the first flight of the prototype with the registration number FLARF-01466 on December 7, 1994, the series production, which had been prepared since January 1993, began at MiG-MAPO in Luchowizy in Moscow Oblast , which was interrupted in 1996 after a legal dispute between the development company Aeroprogress and the manufacturer. The first series aircraft was finally assembled in August 1999 and another seven aircraft were in the advanced stage of construction. One T-101 was chartered to the Chukotka region for six months in July 2000 , a second was delivered to an unnamed operator at the beginning of 2001, and the third was prepared for delivery towards the end of 2001. Negotiations were held with a customer in Asia for the delivery of four aircraft by the end of 2001. In March 2002, components were manufactured for 50 aircraft and parts for the assembly of 25 aircraft were already available. The Khrunichev T-201 developed from the ROKS / Aero T-201 for the western market remained unsuccessful and a continuation of the construction in Stupino planned from 2011 by a successor company with participation of western companies did not materialize.
construction
The braced all - metal high - wing aircraft with two-spar rectangular wings, cross tail and rigid tail wheel landing gear is powered by a Gluschenko / Omsk-Mars TWD-10B propeller turbine with 706 kW and a three-bladed variable - pitch propeller AW-24AN.
