Lancair International, which was taken over earlier this year by Mark and Conrad Huffstutler in Uvalde, Texas, is bringing back the four-place, fixed-gear Mako as a competitor to the Cirrus SR22 and Cessna TTx. The Mako is closely related to the TTx, which started out as the Columbia 350/400 – a certified sidestep to Lancair’s experimental product line.
Lancair Brings Back Mako
Key Takeaways:
- Lancair International, under new ownership, is reintroducing the four-place, fixed-gear Mako aircraft, positioning it as a competitor to models like the Cirrus SR22.
- The Mako is projected to offer strong performance with a Lycoming IO-540 engine, including cruise speeds up to 256 knots (turbocharged version), a useful load of 1,300 pounds, and efficient fuel consumption.
- All Lancair production assets have been consolidated in Uvalde, Texas, where the company will offer a quick-build program for the Mako and begin taking deposits at EAA AirVenture in late July.
