Aerocomp Comp Air 10

From PlaneSpottingWorld, for aviation fans everywhere

The Aerocomp Comp Air 10 is a turboprop-powered light civil utility aircraft manufactured in kit form. Very large for a homebuilt aircraft, it is configured as a largely conventional high-wing monoplane with either taildragger or tricycle undercarriage. Its twin tails are an unusual design feature for aircraft in its class, intended to ensure that the aircraft can be parked inside standard-size hangars.
