The Akaflieg München Mü 30 "Schlacro" ( Schl epp and Acro aircraft) of the student flying group Akaflieg München is a two-seat aerobatic aircraft (Acro) that can be used for aircraft towing .
history
Development started in 1985. Production of the planned Porsche PFM 3200 engine was discontinued in 1990, so that after the first fuselage parts had been completed, the Lycoming AEIO 540 L1B5D six-cylinder boxer engine with 223 kW was changed. The design changes required for this, such as moving the wings 150 mm forward to achieve the desired center of gravity, delayed completion. The first flight took place in 2000. The flight test was interrupted in particular due to problems with the engine cooling and finally continued in 2007 after modifications. In November 2011, the final traffic approval by the Luftfahrt-Bundesamt followed .
construction
The Mü 30 is a two - seater low - wing aircraft that is controlled from the rear seat. The fuselage consists of welded steel pipes that are clad with fiber composite parts . The wings with a span of 8.96 meters are made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) . The structure is designed for a load multiple of +/− 9 g and has a curb weight of 759 kg.
use
The Mü 30 "Schlacro" with the registration D-EKDF is used by Akaflieg Munich at the Königsdorf glider airfield as a towing aircraft for gliders . The aircraft takes part in aerobatic competitions as well as national and international trade fairs, such as the International Aerospace Exhibition Berlin (ILA) since 2008 .
