Seeker Aircraft to Demo at SUN ’n FUN, Lakeland

(Albuquerque, NM) The Seeker, a versatile, one-of-a-kind, light observation aircraft specifically designed for surveillance missions and recently brought to market in the U.S., will be available for flight demonstrations at the SUN ’n FUN Airshow in Lakeland, FL, from April 5-10th.

The Seeker, previously manufactured in Australia only, will also be built and serviced in the U.S. following a recent partnership agreement formed with Portland, Oregon’s Erickson Manufacturing.  Propel Aviation Sales and Services of Miami, FL, will serve as the company’s southeastern dealership. 

The Seeker is a two-seat, fixed-wing aircraft that delivers unmatched forward visibility, seven-hour aloft endurance and incredible affordability. Designed to address the explicit needs of a broad, rapidly growing but under-served surveillance market, the Seeker is already operating military missions in the Middle East, law enforcement missions in the U.S., and wildlife management operations in Africa, among others.  It is also being used for a variety of commercial applications in Australia.

Not only does the Seeker provide superior fields of vision, but it also has the ability to carry a wide variety of sensors and cameras, and has the capability of stable and slow flight. The Seeker is unrivaled by other fixed-wing aircraft and is superior in cost and capability to many police helicopters.

Pilots or other individuals representing law enforcement agencies, oil and gas companies, or any other entity employing or in need of mission-specific surveillance aircraft, are encouraged to schedule their flight demonstration at SUN ’n FUN by contacting Rene “Frenchy” Martinez at (719) 352-9785 or [email protected] or Jimmy Lockhart with Propel Aviation at (305) 490-9330.
