ViS Sprint

The Sprint is a high-wing monoplane with a constant-chord, straight-edged single-spar wing built, like most of the aircraft, from duralumin and braced with a single forward-leaning, streamlined strut on each side to the lower fuselage.

The pod is narrow, seating two in tandem under a three-piece transparency that extends, smoothly contoured, from just aft of the wing leading edge almost to the extreme nose.

Its pusher configuration 73.5 kW (98.6 hp) Rotax 912 ULS water-cooled flat four engine is mounted on the upper rear of the pod at wing height, driving a three blade propeller just behind the trailing edge.

Its fin is broad, swept and straight-edged, with a rear sloping hinge for the nearly rectangular rudder; the tailplane is braced from below to the boom.
