Andes Aerospace Fair

Beatriz Oliveira presents the Kestrel and Cascade Dropship to regional operators.

Lucía Ferreira gives a technical talk on Cascade's heavy-landing systems. Beatriz will compare the Kestrel, a 12.8 Mc light shuttle that seats eight passengers, with the Cascade Dropship, a 185 Mc heavy lander that can carry 60 people or 220 tonnes of cargo to a planetary surface. Lucía's talk will cover Cascade's landing legs, heat shield and the systems that let it climb back to orbit after a heavy landing on Mars or Titan.

Halcyon's stand will feature a Kestrel cockpit simulator and a scale model of the Cascade. Sales staff will be available throughout the fair.

For operators, suppliers and aerospace students. Visitors can also book a demonstration flight in a Kestrel from the fairground pad on the final day, weather permitting.
