  1. Icon Aircraft Moving Production And HQ To New Vacaville Facilities
    Icon Aircraft, the manufacturer of the brand new A5 LSA (Light Sport Aircraft) is anticipated to soon move from its current location in Tehachapi, California to their new production facilities in Vacaville, Solano County. If you remember a couple months ago, July to be precise, Icon Aircraft delivered the first LSA at the EAA Air Venture. It is expected that another aircraft will be delivered from the current work site and thereafter all other units will be produced at the Vacaville facilities.
  2. The new facility is said to be in the region of 140,000 sq ft and tricked-out with the high tech equipment to allow ease in manufacture of the for popular LSA. In fact, Icon Aircraft have as many as 1,500 orders for the airplane already. A few units are expected to be delivered by the end of this year but by next year the company will be anticipating stepped ramp-up in production from the current to about 40 aircraft by first half of 2016 and then perhaps 100 and further there after. The small aircraft has a range of approximately 300 nautical miles and a speed of around 150-knots.
