Aerolab LoCamp LoCamp Role - Amateur-built aircraft National origin - Italy Manufacturer - Aerolab SRL / Golden Age Aeroworks Status - In production (2015) The Aerolab LoCamp is an Italian amateur-built aircraft, designed and originally produced by Aerolab SRL of Gallarate. The aircraft is supplied as a kit for amateur construction, although the company plans to also certify the aircraft to JAR-VLA as well as produce a light-sport aircraft category version. The LoCamp design is now produced by one of Aerolab's original dealers, Golden Age Aeroworks, LLC of Richland Center, Wisconsin, United States. Design and development The LoCamp is intended to resemble a 1930s style light aircraft. It features a cantilever low-wing, a two-seats-in-tandem open cockpit with polycarbonate windscreens, fixed conventional landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration. The aircraft fuselage is made from welded steel tubing, with the wing built from wood or optionally aluminum sheet and its flying surfaces covered in doped aircraft fabric. Its 9.10 m (29.9 ft) span wing employs a NACA 4416 airfoil, has an area of 13.5 m2 (145 sq ft) and mounts flaps. The standard engine available is the 110 hp (82 kW) Rotec R2800 four-stroke radial engine, although the 65 hp (48 kW) Walter Mikron MIIIC was under evaluation by the manufacturer. In 2015 the manufacturer was considering producing a fully assembled special light-sport aircraft version.
