The Bellanca Viking and Super Viking were a series of single-engine, four-seat, high-performance retractable-gear aircraft built in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s. They grew out of the earlier Cruisair and Cruisemaster line by way of the Downer 260, and the first Model 17 Viking, the 17-30 with a 300 hp Continental IO-520-K, appeared in 1967. A Lycoming-powered 17-31 and a turbocharged 17-31TC followed in 1969, and the FAA type certificate that year created the A-series Super Vikings. The fuselage is welded steel tube under fabric, with spruce wings skinned in plywood. A total of 1,356 Vikings were built, most of them between 1968 and 1975, and the type is known for its responsive handling.
