New AOPA Sweeps announced

How does a Husky sound?

Meet the new AOPA Sweepstakes—a 2024 Aviat Husky A–1C-200. Whether you’re hopping between small-town airfields or exploring new corners of your home state, this Aviat Husky is ready to make every takeoff the start of something special.

From grass strips just outside town to tucked away fly-in destinations, the A–1C-200 Husky delivers performance, style, and freedom. With a constant-speed Hartzell Trailblazer composite propeller bolted to a 200-horsepower fuel-injected Lycoming IO-360 engine, the Husky leaps off the ground in 442 feet and climbs at 1,100 feet per minute—even when fully loaded. When it’s light, its performance only improves, and with its optional 31-inch Alaskan Bushwheel tundra tires installed, the AOPA Sweepstakes Aviat Husky can land just about anywhere—local grass strips, river sand bars, frozen lakes, tundra, and more.

No matter where you’re headed, the Garmin IFR glass cockpit is ready to guide you through changing conditions with ease. The AOPA Sweepstakes Aviat Husky has a G500 TXi touchscreen primary flight display/multifunction display with engine indication system, a GTN 750Xi GPS navigator with nav/com, a GFC 500 three-axis digital autopilot, a G5 backup attitude indicator, and a GTX 345R ADS-B In/Out remote transponder.

AOPA thanks the team at Aviat Aircraft for their significant contribution to the AOPA Sweepstakes. AOPA also thanks the Recreational Aviation Foundation (RAF) for their help in making this sweepstakes possible. We plan to fly the Aviat Husky to RAF airfields over the next year to experience the camaraderie of pilots and their friends and family who enjoy the great outdoors and are actively working to preserve—and improve—these special airfields around the country.
