Kovozavody Prostejov 1/72 Piper Pa-25 'Pawnee' Pt.1 # 72472
The Piper PA-25 "Pawnee" is a single-engine agricultural aircraft that was first produced in the early 1960s by the Piper Aircraft Corporation.
It was designed specifically for crop dusting, spraying pesticides, and other agricultural applications, making it a widely used aircraft in the farming industry.
The Pawnee is a low-wing, monoplane with a sturdy and simple design, intended to handle the demanding conditions of agricultural flying.
It typically features an air-cooled Lycoming piston engine with variants ranging in power from 150 to 235 horsepower, giving it sufficient power for carrying chemical loads and handling low-speed flying over fields.
One of its defining features is its large chemical hopper, which is located between the engine and the cockpit.
This allows for easy distribution of agricultural chemicals over crops.
The aircraft can carry up to 800 pounds (360 kg) of chemicals in its hopper, depending on the model.
The Piper PA-25 Pawnee is equipped with a fixed landing gear, which is ideal for rough field operations, and its sturdy frame allows for low-altitude maneuvering, crucial for agricultural spraying.
The single-seat cockpit gives the pilot excellent visibility, which is essential for precision work over crops.
Additionally, it has a relatively simple control system, making it reliable and easy to maintain.
Over the years, the Pawnee became one of the most popular aircraft for agricultural use because of its reliability, durability, and effectiveness.
It has also been used in other roles, such as glider towing and aerial firefighting.
In summary, the Piper PA-25 "Pawnee" is a workhorse in agricultural aviation, valued for its rugged design, powerful engine, and ability to carry out specialized crop dusting and spraying tasks with efficiency and precision.
