Aurora Bizjet Aircraft Project

[hesham]

Hi,


The Aurora is a home builders derivative of the Piagio Avanti P-180. The three flying surface arrangement provides numerous advantages, some aerodynamic and some ergonomic, but also represents a technological elegance not duplicated until now. Aurora's overall size is very similar to the Aerostar 601, but the cabin interior is lengthened and widen slightly to provide Baron class 6-place seating. The emerging Aero-Deisel engine designs were selected for the baseline design as a reliable and low cost horsepower / dollar powerplant that ultimately inspired the overall Aurora configuration. Automotive, turbine and fan jet engines are also viable possibilities. Future extensions of the design include pressurization possibly in the experimental version.

The mentioned site probably is just relating to the feeling, when flying it.
Otherwise a jet with piston (diesel) engines wasn't seen since the Campini N.1, I think .

Nice find hesham. I came across this aircraft some months ago. Only pilotfriend published anything on this aircraft. No other information that I could find.
However, the aircraft is smaller than the Piaggio Avanti. I could not say that it is a derivative of the Avanti, as claimed by Aurora and/or pilotfriend.
