TECNAM ASTORE US – LSA

The Tecnam Astore (English: Goshawk) is an aluminium, two place, low wing fun machine. Equally at home flying formation or to that far off destination. So much room for entry, long legs and baggage. The performance and control feel are only matched by the incredible view, both looking out and looking at the Astore. The aircraft was designed to comply with the US Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) rules. It features a cantilever low-wing, two seats in side-by-side configuration, an enclosed cockpit under a bubble canopy, fixed tricycle landing gear with wheel pants and a single engine in tractor configuration. Its wing has a span of 8.65 m (28.4 ft) and is equipped with flaps. Astore customers can choose between Rotax’s 912 ULS, the fuel injected 912iS or the turbocharged 914UL engine. There are also two avionics choices with the Dynon SkyView Touch and Garmin G3X Touch avionics both designed specifically for the experimental and LSA environment.
