    Comp Air 6.2 serial number 001 over Palm Bay, Florida. The aircraft’s wings, main gear legs, and empennage are smoothly faired into the fuselage to decrease drag. The engine cowl openings appear impossibly small to cool the 350-horsepower twin-turbocharged engine.

    The Comp Air 6.2T, powered by a 650-horsepower Walter M601 turboprop, shares a common instrument panel layout and airframe with its piston-powered sibling. However, the turbine version is almost two feet longer owing to the length of its engine.

Overview

  • The Comp Air 6.2 is a six-seat experimental turboprop aircraft designed for strong short-field performance and high useful load. There’s an optional turbine model with a 650-horsepower Czech-built Walter M601 turboprop with increased performance and an increase in price—an additional $100,000 for the turbine kit price.
