The WC-600 Sloop is a twin-engine turboprop, short-haul regional airliner developed and produced in Zokesia by Anssec.
Development
Designed just after the takeover by Cyten-Ward Industries, the team at Annsec was in need of a success to get the struggling company in the green and prevent shuttering of doors. The design for a small, long-range regional aircraft with good cargo capacity and ability to land on less-than-ideal runways led to the development of the WC-600 concept. With a high parasol wing and two turboprop engines, the WC-600 is capable of extended ranges on less fuel than a conventional tubojet airliner.
Accidents and Incidents
The WC-600 has been involved in no accidents and no hull loss incidents since its inception.
