Weight and Balance Calculator The T67 Firefly was produced by Slingsby Aviation from a design originally created by Fournier named the RF-6. The Firefly began life as a basic aerobatic trainer with the type number T67A. It was of wood construction and fitted with a 116Hp engine. The next incarnation, T67B was essentially a T67A but of Glassfibre Reinforced Plastic (GRP) construction. The T67C was the last of the civilian models and was essentially a T67B but with a 160hp engine. The T67C can be found in differing configurations, for example with fuselage fuel tank, wing fuel tanks or the split canopy (as found on the T67M-Mk2). The military variants (T67M, T67M-Mk2, T67M200 and T67M260) all have inverted fuel / oil systems and fuel injected engines, from the T67M-Mk2 they are also fitted with the split canopy. The T67M and M-Mk2 are powered by 160hp engines while the M200 and M260 are powered by 200hp and 260hp engines respectively. G-BNSP is a T67M-Mk2. |
