2015 BushCat 912 ULS
$NZD79000
The BushCat by SkyReach Aircraft is a rugged, reliable, and highly capable STOL machine — ideal for backcountry strips or weekend cross-country flights. This particular aircraft (ZK-PAW) operates in the Microlight category and has undergone a major rebuild by SoloWings (Tauranga) after a 2020 takeoff incident, receiving upgraded wings, fuselage, and control surfaces — all reskinned with new tri-laminate coverings. It’s powered by a Rotax 912 ULS 100 hp engine paired with a Kiev 3-blade ground-adjustable propeller and remains in excellent, fully serviceable condition.
Avionics include MGL IEFIS, MGL V6 radio, TRIG TT21 ADS-B transponder, and Pivot iPad mount, giving you a well-equipped panel for VFR operations. With only 245 hours TTIS (airframe) and 265 hours TTIS (engine), this BushCat delivers confidence and fun in equal measure. Fresh 100-hour and annual inspection completed March 2025.
