Aero Ski Model R2800 for Champ

The “Champ” 7 Series aircraft have long been really great skiplanes but the low gross weight limit as a result of the aerobatic category (many models) has seriously limited the type of ski installations possible.
The new Aero Ski R2800’s give these great airplanes a chance to show their performance potential in the variety of conditions that only retractable skis can operate in.

Unlike wheel penetration skis which do half the job, the R2800 locks down when needed for take-off in the “really tough conditions.”

* Snow landings can be done with skis up or down.
* Landing on a hard surface is done with simple, efficient cable releases to raise skis in flight.
* All mechanical action – no hydraulic system to install or maintain.
* Lighter than other retractables.
* Plastic bottoms reduce drag and minimize freeze down.
* Skis maintain proper flight level attitude in either position.
* Can be installed in less time than other retractable systems.
