Additional Remarks
- The Rockwell Commander 112 is an American four-seat single-engined general aviation aircraft designed and built by North American Rockwell (later Rockwell International) starting in 1972. The 1976 Commander line introduced two new models one of which was the Commander 112TC with a turbocharged engine of 210 hp and MTOW of 2,850 lb, The 112TC had a significantly improved cruise speed of 160 knots (300 km/h; 180 mph) when flying at higher altitudes, as high as 20,000 feet (6,100 m), which was aided by a 32 inches (810 mm) increase in wingspan.
- In the late 70’s the 112TC was further upgraded with a 50 pounds (23 kg) maximum weight increase and minor detail changes. The major change was a complete makeover of the avionics suite with a three-axis autopilot, producing the 112TCA “Alpine” such as N4698W we have listed.
