The Colyaer Freedom amphibious light sport aircraft, designed and built in Spain, will be marketed in the U.S. by Waterbirds LC and LSA Aero, of Little Rock, Ark., the companies announced at Sun 'n Fun this week. Waterbirds will provide sales and marketing support, and LSA will import the aircraft and provide customer service. The Freedom, a tricycle-gear pusher, is a brand-new design based on the Martin airplane built by Colyaer in the mid-1990s. It has seats for two, with a useful load of 576 pounds. The wing and tail are both removable. The airplane is constructed of carbon fiber, Nomex, Kevlar, and stainless steel, for resistance to corrosion. With wheels down, the Freedom can safely land in rough fields.
