Description
Work commenced construction of the Stallion in 1998 by first attaching the fuselage to the chrome molly steel passenger cage. During this stage it was determined that we would use the Walter Turbine engine instead of the stock Continental IO 550. This would give us 725 hp instead of the normal 300. Because of this, the designer of the Stallion, Martin Hollman, had to reengineer all the steel tubing in the framework, due to the increased loads placed on it by the more powerful engine. The wet wing was carefully constructed to insure there would never be any possibility of leakage, and it's design would minimize transfer of fuel from one wing to another, due to any un-coordination of flight attitude. Each wing holds 117 gallons of jet A, with another 7 in the header tank, giving the stallion more range than any other aircraft of it's size. The interior was quite a work of art, requiring the reconstruction of a whole new airplane. The special leather, and King Air inspired seats, give it the sophisticated feel of a new Lexus. After owning several Cessna 210s', my goal was to make the flying qualities as much like the venerable Cessna as possible, hence, the yokes, and 210 like doors. Flying the Stallion could be likened to flying a 210 on steroids. Our vertical tail was slightly modified, so the designer felt we should recheck the flutter potential. After a thorough evaluation the aircraft passed it's test with flying colors. We have now flown the Stallion over 100 hours and have found it to perform flawlessly. It is a smooth, quiet, and powerful airplane, capable of carrying 6 passengers, or a large payload tremendous distances, in it's cavernous passenger compartment.
Construction History:
The Stallion's birth came from the drawing and design tables of Martin Hollman's engineering workshop in Montery California. From there initial construction begain in Coure d'Alene Idaho and was later moved to Santa Paula California. The Stallion needed to have numerous modifications from its original design to accompany the more powerful engine as well as the advanced avionics. Under the supervision of Danel Gray whom has built numerous experimental aircraft, the Stallion was completed in 2008 and went through extensive test flights with none other then Danel Gray as the pilot. The Stallion now resides at it's home base in Santa Barbara California.
