![]() American Champion to Test DeltaHawk Engine An agreement reached between Jerry Mehlhaff, President of American Champion Aircraft (ACA), and Diane Doers, President of DeltaHawk Engines LLC, will lead to the installation of a DeltaHawk DH160A4 turbo-diesel in an ACA Explorer airframe. DeltaHawk will deliver the engine to ACA in early February so the engineering staff can begin the actual engine to airframe mating. Prior to that time the companies will work together to plan this first DeltaHawk installation in a certified airframe. The aircraft will be tested and flown as an Experimental pending DeltaHawk’s FAA type certification, expected in 2005. |
