A steerable tail wheel and
optional electric start are your first indications that
flying the Koala is as easy as owning it. Optional brakes
assist in shorter take off and landing rolls.
Even at the slowest speeds,
the Koala maintains the stable flight characteristics that
make for safe, enjoyable flights. Large 8-foot ailerons
provide confident roll control at high speeds, and stall
speed is an enviable 26 mph. |

Flying the FP-202 Koala
While your engine takes you
up at a 900 to 1400 feet per minute climb, it also emits a
relatively low noise level, effectively reduced by Lord
mounts, tuned exhaust and geared reduction drive.
FP-202 redefines the
standard
With the Fisher FP-202
Koala, the standard for personal aircraft has been
redefined, but not redesigned.
A strikingly faithful
reproduction of one of the most popular aircraft ever built,
the Koala can make the dream of owning a classic flying
machine a reality.
Proven geodetic wood
construction gives the 202 its strength; proven Fisher
ingenuity gives the plane its appeal. A totally enclosed
cockpit provides plenty of room for the pilot, while economy
of instrumentation and controls allow plenty of room for fun
flying.
More classic-style aircraft
hardware abounds: An aluminum strut braced main spar
carrythrough, a ground adjustable horizontal stabilizer,
14-inch pneumatic tires with rubber shock cord, and
removable cockpit panels for summer flight. |
