Midwest LSA Expo Mt. Vernon Airport September 10 - 12.

Here we go again with another of our series of Video Pilot Reports or VPRs, this time in the Czech Sport Aircraft SportCruiser. 

Yes, that’s the airplane for one year known as the PiperSport in the legacy company’s short period in the LSA space. All the while it was represented by U.S. Sport Aircraft and that Texas-based company is once again the sole importer for the USA. 

In this video we take you along for a flight in the popular machine and provide you with a full cockpit review and a selection of performance numbers. Enjoy!

The SportCruiser is a double-seat, all-metal aircraft, arranged as a low-wing mono-plane with cantilevered wings and conventional empennage. 

It is successfully operated in more than 30 countries all around the world and the 600th unit will be produced and placed on the market in the early 2017, making the SportCruiser one of the most successful aircraft of the entire LSA category.

The SportCruiser has been approved for operation in the USA in the LSA category according to the FAA Accepted ASTM Consensus Standards and can be operated in other countries recognizing this regulation, e.g. South Africa, Australia, Israel and UAE countries. 

The SportCruiser represents the ideal and well proven platform for basic and advanced flight training, basic military pilot training, general recreational flying and air tourism.
