1650R  EROS

1650R EROS

Enclosed cockpit comfort for all-season flying.

In Greek mythology Eros was the god of love and attraction. We designed the Eros for pilots who love to fly, and you can certainly say it's attractive!

Our flagship aircraft, the Eros is the evolution of years of light plane design. It has all the qualities and features our customer were asking for 

In addition to all these standard features, the Eros has some pretty neat options. Like a convertible canopy. You can fly in an enclosed cockpit during cold weather or open cockpit when the temperature is a little warmer. Wheel pants ("spats" to our friends in the UK and Oz) really dress up the looks. And you can add a second wing tank to double the range.
