Other aircraft information: This aerodynamic, cantilevered, low wing sport pilot aircraft of mixed construction can transport two people over 800 statute miles at a maximum cruising speed of 155 mph. And it all begins with a quick 200 to 400 foot ground roll on a grass or concrete strip. Before you know it, you're in the air, rapidly accelerating toward a maximum climb rate of nearly 1,700 feet per minute!
But that's not all because, with the history behind the ATEC Zephyr, you have peace of mind.
Developed in collaboration with renowned Czech aircraft designer, Oldrich Olsansky, the ATEC Zephyr Sport Pilot airplane has an impeccable safety record since its debut over ten years ago. With over 205 units plying the skies of Australia, Europe and North America, the plane is thoroughly proven and exceptional from a reliability and economic standpoint.
What's more, buyers have two paths to choose from when it comes to buying one. Sport Pilot, Amateur-built (Experimental in the U.S.) or Ultralight (Canada only; Advanced Ultralight pending). By opting for the first category, operators can enjoy all of the benefits of a fully-certified aircraft minus outrageous acquisition, operating and maintenance costs. Moreover, they can even train student pilots in a flying club environment. For those who no longer qualify for the standard aviation medical, the Ultralight and Sport Pilot categories less restrictive requirements may be the answer. Either way, one thing's sure. With an ATEC Zephyr, you no longer have to sacrifice performance and flexibility for affordability.
The MTOW is 472.5 kg in the European ultralight version and in US the LSA version of the Zephyr allows 550 kg. The LSA Zephyr is called Zephyr 2550.
