Abaris Golden Arrow
The Abaris Golden Arrow is a homebuilt civil utility aircraft manufactured in kit form. It is an unusually large aircraft for its type, able to seat six people (including the pilot) and, also unusually in a homebuilt plane, powered by a turboprop engine.
The Golden Arrow is of conventional monoplane configuration, with retractable tricycle undercarriage and a T-tail. It is largely of composite construction.
As of 2003, the first aircraft was not yet complete.
