Great engine choices. Friend built a single seat Aventura via Alex and just loves the plane. If amphibian is your dream, Aventura is the way to go. Alex is really taking the company forward. Great to see. Congratulations to Alex and Aventura.

You did an outstanding job with this video. Fantastic content which provided a very comprehensive coverage of the aircraft and company. Thanks for making it.

I've always loved this amphibian since the Buccaneer Days

This is a great looking plane.

That's a great interview. It's nice to see some of the factory options as they look on the aircraft, and I can see how that really would be a pretty quick build. Take my money!!

James Fisher "TAKE MY MONEY" haha. OK. Thanks for watching! We look forward to the video content you share with us from Australia!!! Ready for YOUR "Aero Adventure" yourself?!?!?!

Thanks for a cool video , was wondering how it all went together technically , its amazing how important it is to try and make everything as light as possible yet still be good enough to do the job , they pulled off a great affordable aircraft by not overbuilding. If you get a chance would love to see how the wings are made and attachment points for the wings. Fair play to Alex for driving the company forward , and being a contact for supply of spare parts.

Thank you for this nice technical overview !

Nice to see this man making a go of it and provide an answer to the Icon A5, which I feel is entirely over-priced. Great look and solid build quality. Hope things go well. How has this lock-down affected the flight industry, as it has, per force, affected everyone and everything?

I must have one of these.

Great video, Brian. Now get one of these kits shipped off to Mike Patey so he can get started on the back-country version.

I love this airplane, the only thing that I would love to see is a foldable wing. This would allow me to keep it in a enclosed trailer at home. I plan on purchasing one next year.

Good for you, man! Best of luck this year. Looks like you have it all well in hand. Beautiful aircraft.

Good video....thank's and nice greetings from germany 🙂

My dream airplane! Wish the prices were still where they were couple years ago, guess I have to keep saving. Unless I get lucky on barnstormers and find a UL . But would really love to buy it new from aero adventure…

It takes about an hour with at least two people. Not really difficult . I have seen it done in person once. Thanks for watching!

So you can fly it as a breezy,just the bare frame like a motorcycle the hull is basically a fairing that lets it float.....that sounds strong

Very cool!!

This company has really jacked their prices on the kits from where they were a couple years ago at $32,000 to $49,000.

Good report.

Carl Schmiedeke Sorry for the delayed response... have been at Sun-N-Fun all week. I believe the Aventura UL (Ultralight) is around $25k (for EVERYTHING) and the Aventura II Experimental 2-seater KIT start at a base of $38k. Links to the website can be found in the body of the details for this video and you can reach out directly and privately for more information. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch! I appreciate you! :-)

Quit using the term breaking in. The run time before using full power for an extended time is called mating moving parts. This is to smooth machining roughness from newly made parts. Such as setting rings in the bore and bearings.

👍

Did you move north , or still in Deland

Is the engine not covered.

Roy Boy soon In this type aircraft, and the testing they have done, they concluded that there isn't much performance gain "cowled" or "uncowled." So basically... it is more for aesthetics etc. There is an option for a cowling as well I am told. And this is water cooled with the radiator out in from anyway. Thanks for watching! I appreciate you.

BUYER BEWARE! I purchased a kit from the prior owners of Aero Adventure in 2005. I almost returned it, but then received assurances from the owner that the problems would be resolved. They were not. Missing parts, wrong parts, incorrectly made parts, lack of documentation, incorrect documentation…you name it. It was impossible to build. I’d start, get about 15 minutes in, then find out I had incorrect length bolts, missing aluminum, or conflicting manual information. Then I’d have to document it, wait for a response from the factory, fight about getting what I needed, wait for the part, then start again. It was so frustrating we’d just give up for a few months, then take it up again. Here I am in 2024 with 200 hours into the build and its about half done. The control surfaces are ready for clear coat and the fiberglass work is yet to be done. Instrument panel and so on. What I learned was that very few, if any, of these kits were ever built by the “owner/builder”. All were built by shops with experience and spare parts where the owner supposedly participated. A few admitted to me that they never did.. We’ve decided to either finish the kit or dump it this year so I tried to contact Alex at Aero Adventure to see if a current version of the manual was available. l cannot get a response to email or voice mail. I had a friend contact them offering to pay for a manual to evaluate a purchase. They never responded to him either. I called the airport to see if anyone there knew these guys or if they were still in business. They are seen “occasionally”. Its sad cause this is a nice aircraft. I’ve flown one. Its a nice design that should be what it is advertised as, a 200hr build. But it has never lived up to its potential and now it appears may not even be in business any longer. Too bad. At least I can sell the Rotax…

4 ur birthday present you can have this sea plane 😜

OK what's is like on and off the sea? Does it corrode?

@ohwell2790

It is fiberglass and the aircraft frame and structure is aluminum, So, why this question? As a person buying this aircraft would know that anyway.

The Pipistrel Alpha is easy to fly but quite finikey or in other meanings quite sensitive on the movement of the joystick the rudder pedals are alright but sensitive but I like the Alpha because it is quite easy to handle.

How much?

How much kit costs in usd

Just found the channel and am interested in this amphibian aircraft. Very disappointed in the lack of information provided. What are the weights? Empty, useful load, max weight? Cruise vs stall vs VNE? Dimensions for hanger requirements? Cost? Too much information missing. Most is not on the website either. Only partial cost is given there. Sadly lacking in information relative to a very interesting aircraft.

Is that a single seat? And do you make a 2 seater model?

@JAlexanderCurtis

It's a little confusing because at the beginning he says its a single-seater, which initially turned me off to the plane. But then at 10:12 and 16:30 you can see that all the planes they are playing with at the factory are 2 seaters. Looking on the website they only show 2 seaters on the site.

@@ohwell2790 I guess you don't agree with my assessment then. however at first glance, the only differences I can point out are that this have floaters attached to the wings instead the body, the 3rd wheel in the tail, and the stabilizers are in the lower part of the tail. and of course there's the aesthetics factor, hence my colorful and very nice "DIY" take on it.

This looks like a ripoff of the Aerodyne SeaRey?

Great video but didnt like the plane

How long before the wings folded ?

I don't want to look like a hater but to have a semi structural hull absorbing hydrodynamic loads and astressed structure really seem like a dumb idea. You have he cost of creating a mould and not using it properly. This plane could have a nice composite fuselage......i really don't see why they designed it in this way...

I owned an Aero Adventure Aventura and it WAS CRAP! Alex, who owns Aero Adventure is (in my opinion) the worst possible person in aviation industry! My feeling for this sub-standard person aside, getting parts was nearly impossible and if I did get a shipment, it was almost always the wrong part! Just crap company and not a well-built aircraft. The design is great but the quality is like as a Quicksilver ultralight or worse. Wobbly, thin & cheap, poorly adapted for quick build times in sacrifice for quality. Truly Kerry at Progressive makes the finest sea plane on earth and why would you pay for this piece of crap supported by the (in my opinion) the biggest dirtbag in aviation? BUYER BEWARE! I now part own a Searey and I could not be happier. The difference between aircraft is incredible.
