As part of the international hydroaviation rally "Wings of the Satellite – 2026", the company "AviaTech" will officially present its new multi-purpose seaplane — "Pilgrim". The event, which traditionally gathers experts, engineers, and enthusiasts of water aviation from all over the world, will be held on May 23, 2026.
The "Pilgrim" is equipped with three Rotax 912 iS piston engines, each with a capacity of 160 hp, running on regular AI-95 automotive gasoline. This power plant ensures high reliability, efficiency, and simplifies operation in remote regions where access to aviation fuel is limited.
"Pilgrim" is designed to carry 6–8 passengers, develops a cruising speed of up to 280 km/h, and is capable of covering distances of up to 2,500 kilometers without refueling. The maximum take-off weight of the aircraft is 3 tons, which makes it one of the most spacious light seaplanes in its class.
The developers paid special attention to the versatility of the design: the aircraft can be operated both from the water surface and from unpaved or short runways, which expands its application — from patrolling hard-to-reach areas to tourist and sanitary missions.
These features make the "Pilgrim" a promising solution for working in the Arctic, the Far East, and other remote regions of Russia, as well as for international export.
