Dyn'Aero MCR4S / Pick-up

The initial studies of the four-seat MCR-4S started in early 1994, during development of the MCR VLA. The VLA appears first in 1996 and permited the development of the general technology. The airframe, and the high lift devices, such as the double slotted flaps were initially designed to equipped the MCR UL, meanwhile, the control system was directly from the MCR CLUB technology of 1998.

The MCR 4-S concept was to fly with four people onboard, cruising at more than 250 km/h, and burning only 20 lt/hr with a 100 hp engine.

The research gave wing-tips optimized in a wind-tunnel, and double slotted flaps, providing the MCR 4-S with STOL performances.

Designed around a roomy cockpit ; 1,20m width at the rear seats, to allow four people up to 1,95m tall to be easily seated in the airplane, the aircraft is equipped with a very strong oil-pneumatic undercarriage, allowing landings on any type of runways.

The 4-S maiden flight was in June 2000.

The MCR 4-S has a very light empty weight . The aircraft can carry up to 150% of its own empty weight.

Engine options include the 100 hp Rotax 912S, 100 hp turbo charged Rotax 914, and 120 hp Jabiru 3300.

The MCR-4S can be fitted with other options such as Ballistic Recovery System parachute, extended range fuel tanks, and toe operated hydraulic brakes.

The MCR-4S is available in kit form in respect with the CNSK regulation (specific kit airworthiness certificate) or in the "experimental" category ,depending on the registration country.

The MCR PickUp is a two seater version of the MCR 4S with a large trunk instead of the rear seats.
