It was formally introduced at the AirVenture airshow in Oshkosh, Wisconsin in July 2018. The aircraft is supplied complete ready-to-fly-aircraft.[1] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsDesign and development[edit]Operational history[edit]Variants[edit]Ranger R7 Yellowstone[edit]Ranger R7 Glacier[edit]Ranger R7 Redwood[edit]Ranger R7 Cascade[edit]Specifications (R7)[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Design and development[edit]The development of the Ranger R7 started in about 2013. By February 2018 two prototypes were flying and four production aircraft were under construction, for April 2018 delivery.[1]The aircraft is an all-metal monocoque design and features a cantilever high-wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cabin, accessed by doors, fixed tricycle landing gear, with a castering nosewheel and a single engine in tractor configuration. The aircraft is made from pre-painted sheet 6061-T6 aluminum to save construction time. The seats fold flat to allow sleeping in the cabin when camping.[1] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4The company manufactures the majority of parts itself to reduce costs and shorten the supply chain.[1]By January 2018 the design had been accepted by the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as a light-sport aircraft.[2]Operational history[edit]By May 2017, one example had been registered in the United States with the FAA.[3]In a review of the design on AVweb, writer Paul Bertorelli indicated that the aircraft suffers from a low useful load of 438\u00a0lb (199\u00a0kg), due to the choice of the old-technology Continental O-200D engine, which is at least 50\u00a0lb (23\u00a0kg) heavier than other newer engines.[4]By April 2019, 12 production aircraft had been delivered to customers, which included individuals and flight schools.[5] By August 2021, 50 aircraft had been delivered[6] and by November 2021, 66 had been delivered.[7]Variants[edit]Ranger R7 Yellowstone[edit]Base model powered by a 100\u00a0hp (75\u00a0kW) Continental O-200-D four-stroke, air-cooled powerplant and fitted with a Dynon SkyView Touch glass cockpit avionics system.[1] No longer in production.Ranger R7 Glacier[edit]Intermediate model powered by a 100\u00a0hp (75\u00a0kW) Continental O-200-D four-stroke, air-cooled powerplant and fitted with a 10″ Dynon SkyView HDX glass cockpit avionics system, additional exterior options are also available.
