Mudry CAP 230

The CAP Aviation CAP-23x family is a family of aircraft designed for competition aerobatics. The CAP 230 airframe was a direct development of the CAP 21 competition single seater strengthened to cope with a 300 hp (220 kW) 6-cylinder Lycoming AEIO-540 engine instead of the 200 hp (150 kW) original 4-cylinder Lycoming AEIO-360.

Design and development
The CAP 230 was primarily developed in 1985 for the French Air Force. From the basic CAP 21 airframe, trailing edge apex triangular surfaces were added to the basic trapezoidal wing and a full wooden construction. It withstood +10/-10 G-forces, had a 270 degrees/second roll rate and a top speed of 400 km/h. Between 1986-1990 this was the mount of the French Air Force aerobatics team (French: ''Equipe de Voltige de l'Armée de l'Air''). Between 1990-1998 this was the mount of the French Air Force aerobatics team. In the years 1999-2005, examples were flown by the French Air Force aerobatics team. ==Operators==
