Backcountry Airstrips or Even a Glacial Plateau

The Expedition E350's tough tricycle gear is built specifically for operations from rough airstrips.  Even the nose wheel is built tough, with polyurethane shock absorbers to handle uneven terrain. Plus the castoring nose wheel has a range of 300 degrees rotation where necessary.

Whether it is your family, your friends or your clients, an Expedition provides you with one of the finest, hand-built aircraft in the world. Go ahead, land on that backcountry airstrip, that glacial plateau, or that rough water lake. Each Expedition is built from day one, not just to handle these conditions, but to thrive in them.
