Swedish carbon UL with performance DNA.
Low-wing, full carbon, Rotax 916 iS at 160 hp and 600 kg MTOM. The BW 650 cruises at 352 km/h, combining performance with a remarkably quiet cockpit.
From landing gear to avionics — every component designed to one end: maximum performance with uncompromising material quality.
The Blackwing has a top speed of more than 400 km/h. But it doesn't only stand out for being fast.
Is the BW 650 approved in Switzerland?
Yes, under the UL framework. Echo-class certification via FOCA is available on request.
Which engine does the BW 650 use?
The Rotax 916 iS at 160 hp — the next step up from the 912 (BW 600) and 915 (BW 635).
How does the BW 650 behave at low speeds?
The custom airfoil delivers predictable stall behaviour even in heavy rain or with bugs, without stall strips or vortex generators.
Is a whole-aircraft parachute available?
Yes — a BRS ballistic rescue system is available as an option.
What's the fuel capacity of the BW 650?
140 L of anti-explosive bladder tanks — about 5.5 hours at 65% cruise power.
