HIstory
After having designed and flown the AV-221, Charles Fauvel developed a version for amateur construction, and named it the AV-222. Lighter and of a less complex structure, this flying wing could be disassembled into three sections (the center section had no dihedral). It had a laminar airfoil (optional, or the more conventional Fauvel airfoil), and could be equipped with a choice of a classic landing gear or a mono-gear (the last being the recommended one because it is lighter, more economical to fabricate and easier to install). The craft mounted either a Rectimo engine (40 HP), Limbach (60 HP) of Volkswagen origin, or the 2-cycle Rotax. Fuel tanks could contain up to 30 liters (with 45 as an option). Several sets of AV-222 plans were sold in France, Germany, Italy, Sweden, United Kingdom and in the United States. The first AV-222 flying wing, constructed by Hans Martinson and registered SE-XSL, flew in Sweden in May 1992, while several other construction projects are pursued in France, Germany and in the United States.
