Amberley Airshow 2008_0201.jpg

RAAF Base Amberley, Australia

The Giles 202 is a carbon fibre monoplane, capable of unlimited aerobatics. The aircraft is stressed to plus or minus 10 g. It is powered by a modified Lycoming Engine, producing 240 hp. Due to its construction of composite materials, the thrust to weight ratio of the aircraft gives it unlimited potential not seen before in Australia. The roll rate of the aircraft is the fastest in the world to date, at approximately 500 deg sec.
