2. DESCRIPTION OF THE AIRCRAFT
Aeros-2 is advanced two-seater (in line) weight shift controlled aircraft. It has been developed to
provide the economy and durability combined with maximum safety and comfort.
Aeros-2 is designed for up to 472.5 kg maximum take-off weight. The aircraft has been designed
with wide speed range allowing slow speed flight at very low fuel consumption, short take off
and landing as well as cruising speeds up to 130 km/h. The electric trim system for trimming the
aircraft in pitch gives precise fingertip control at the speed range of 80 – 110 km/h.

the trike in pitch and roll by which control is affected. The trike includes the tricycle
undercarriage, power plant and cockpit.
The engine is mounted to the engine platform at the base of the engine. The fuel tank is mounted
beneath the engine platform.
The pilot cockpit is designed to allow for various size pilots.
The cockpit has a windscreen for improved wind deflection.

development program aimed at optimizing your level of safety and satisfaction as a pilot,
through high performance and strength of construction.
This wing is safely controllable and stable at a wide range of operating speeds. The strength of
the wing is sufficient for different conditions of flight with defined load. It is very stable, and has
been designed primarily for cross-country flying.
The Profi sail has several cloth and Velcro shear ribs, which combined with an excellent sail fit,
