The world looks different from above, but which place is the most beautiful? An amazing interview from 2017. 

Piston aircraft - the classics of aviation

Piston aircraft are aircraft powered by internal combustion engines (Lycoming, Continental, Austro Engine, Rotax), in which fuel energy is converted into mechanical energy that moves the propeller. Thanks to their high efficiency at lower altitudes and lower speeds, they are ideal for general aviation applications - from pilot training to business and recreational flying.

Piston aircraft are machines valued for their simple design, direct control and predictable flight characteristics. Their biggest advantage, however, is cost: piston engines are by far the cheapest to buy and operate - while a turbine unit can cost up to a million dollars, a piston engine is an expense of tens of thousands. Also, fuel consumption and service are much more economical, which makes most of global general aviation rely on this type of propulsion.

Why are piston aircraft still irreplaceable?

In an era of advanced technology, piston aircraft remain the heart of general aviation. They are reliable machines that unleash unique emotions - every change in pressure, every gust of wind is information that the pilot perceives directly. According to many pilots, it is piston aircraft that offer the purest form of flying.
