After two decades of producing hundreds of kits for the SeaRey – an experimental amphib that features swept wings, a pusher prop and retractable gear – Progressive Aerodyne received FAA certification this month for a production LSA version of the airplane.

The production airplane will be available in two models, a basic version priced between $120,000 to $125,000 that comes equipped with the 912S Rotax engine and an elite version for $138,000 that brings the added muscle of the turbocharged 114 hp Rotax 914. Both aircraft feature Advanced Flight Systems avionics, and the elite version will come equipped with a Garmin 696.
