PH-SVX & PH-SVY – Piper Cheyenne
Both aircraft are mainly used for vertical aerial photography. The turbine engines use kerosene which makes the aircraft very economical at higher altitudes and also suitable for operations in Africa and Asia for example. AVGAS is often not available in these areas. The pressurized cabin makes it unneceserray to refill oxygen for high flights which makes the operation very independent.
The Cheyenne has a cruising speed of 245 knots (450 km/h). With the high speed a very high production can be made in a short period. The speed and the large range make the ferry flights to any location very efficient. The ceiling (maximum height) of this aircraft is 28,000 feet (8,5km).
