1,500 hours TBO for Austro Engine’s AE300

Austro Engine, located in Wiener Neustadt (Austria), received the 1,500 hrs TBO (Time between overhaul) for the 170 hp turbocharged Jet-A1 and diesel engine AE300.

In less than one year the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) raised the AE300 TBO in two steps, from 1,000 to 1,200 hours and now from 1,200 to 1,500 hours. This proves once again the high quality and durability of this power plant. The engine overhaul price with approximately EUR 16,700 (USD 22,000), which is EUR 11.13 (USD 15.00) per flight hour, is the cheapest in the industry.

Furthermore the company is proud to announce that from now on only one part of the AE300 is lifetime-limited within the TBO period. Austro Engine’s customers benefit from lower downtimes and reduced total operational costs per engine.

Further improvements are in progress.

Austro Engine successfully tested brandnew rotary engine AE80R

On the 8th of January 2013 the engine AE80R which is in development since 2.5 years successfully performed on the Austro Engine test bench. As a final target it will have a weight of 27 kg with an output of 80 hp (58 kw).

Compared to the AE50R (55 PS Austro Engine rotary engine) the new engine has no loss lubrication system anymore which results in an extremely low oil consumption. A dual FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine Control) controlled fuel injection system will keep fuel consumption on the lowest possible level. The engine is designed to power small manned or unmanned aircraft.

According to Christian Dries, Chairman and Owner Diamond Aircraft, the AE80R might has the potential to become one of the leader in the extremely weight sensitive market of LSA (Light Sport Aircraft) and ultra-light aircraft. “The engine has no vibration and therefore it is ideal to power UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) with highly sensitive equipment” he added.
