Interesting facts about the Lockwood AirCam
✈ The AirCam is a high-wing, twin-engine pusher kitplane designed by Phil Lockwood for low and slow aerial photography in the Congo for National Geographic in the 1990s.
✈ Lockwood Aircraft Corp. manufactures and distributes the kit in the USA. Owners complete the aircraft under the Experimental Amateur-Built category.
✈ Typical power is two Rotax 912 ULS engines rated at 100 hp each. Many builds use Rotax 912 iS fuel-injected engines or 115 hp Rotax 914 turbo engines.
✈ Gen-3 AirCam increases gross weight to 1,900 lb on land gear and offers an optional removable third seat behind the tandem cockpit.
✈ The AirCam’s 36 ft wingspan and large wing area give very low stall speed and short-field performance. Takeoff ground roll can be under 100 ft on suitable surfaces.
✈ Engine placement close to the centerline and ample rudder authority allow controlled single-engine flight. The design can even lift off on one engine in the right conditions.
✈ Amphibious float configurations are common. Factory-supported setups list a 2,000 lb gross weight on amphibs with dedicated performance and checklists.
✈ Typical endurance is about 6 hours with standard tanks. Low-level sightseeing at around 55 mph can use as little as 3.5 gallons per hour total in economical settings.

FAQs About the Lockwood AirCam
How much does a Lockwood AirCam cost?
Pricing varies by kit, engine choice and options. As a data point, a complete kit with Rotax 912 ULS engines was listed at US$128,990 in 2019. Kitplanes reported an AirCam Amphib kit price of US$148,660 in 2023. On the used market, asking prices commonly range well into six figures, with examples advertised around US$229,000 in 2025. Always confirm current pricing with the manufacturer and sellers.
What engines does the AirCam use and what are the pros and cons?
Most builds use two Rotax 912 ULS engines at 100 hp each. Builders also select fuel-injected Rotax 912 iS or turbocharged Rotax 914 engines at 115 hp each. The 914 improves hot-and-high and float performance. The 912 iS can reduce fuel burn at similar power settings. Confirm engine times, installation details and propeller choices during your pre-buy.
How fast does the AirCam cruise and what is the fuel burn?
Typical cruise sits between 50 and 85 mph depending on configuration and power. Manufacturer guidance highlights sightseeing at about 55 mph on very low power. Real-world training operators cite fuel burns from about 3.5 gph at very low power to roughly 7 gph around 70 mph for both engines combined. Verify performance in the specific aircraft you are buying.
What is the AirCam’s useful load and range?
A Gen-3 landplane commonly lists an 800 lb useful load with an MTOW of 1,900 lb. Standard fuel is 28 US gallons for about 340 miles of range and up to six hours endurance. Some aircraft include auxiliary tanks that extend endurance and range. Check the exact build sheet and weight and balance.
What pilot qualifications and training should I plan for?
The AirCam is a multiengine airplane. You will need the appropriate multiengine rating to act as PIC in most jurisdictions. Many owners complete transition training in type, and float-equipped AirCams are also used for Multi-Engine Sea ratings. Budget time for dual instruction and insurance requirements during your purchase planning.
