Virus

Virus 912 is a fast, yet very economic cruise aircraft. Ideal for cross-country flying it is also suited for aero-clubs and training flights. She offers unprecedented handling and performance while remaining highly efficient and every task she is confronted with. Full composite construction, 12.4-meter wing span and a glide ratio of 1:24 put Virus alongside motorgliders, but she maintains supreme maneuverability throughout the envelope. Features such as 4-stage flaperons, airbrakes, variable pitch propeller with feathering capability and an overpowered engine make the Virus literally a dream aircraft for many pilots. Undercarriage can be tricycle (nose wheel) of tail-dragger type. The engine is the famous and reliable four-stroke Rotax 912.

The whole of the cockpit is also completely encased with bulletproof Kevlar® & Lexan® materials. This, together with an 1:24 glide ratio and a dedicated parachute rescue system makes the Virus one of the safest aircraft on the market. More than 200 aircraft of the Sinus/Virus family are now flying on all six continents of the World, being subjected to the most extreme temperatures, altitude and humidity and they have performed with an impeccable safety record.

The comfortable cockpit of Virus SW resembles the one of Sinus and has a side-by-side seating arrangement with all the controls reachable to both pilots. The pedals, seat and headrest can be adjusted to suit your body size in just seconds. The large, ergonomically shaped instrument panel has enough room to fit everything you wish to have beside the multifunction digital flight display which monitors all flight- and engine parameters and comes standard with the aircraft. Full dual controls and straight-forward handling make the Virus SW a fascinating aircraft for both primary and advanced flight training. *** We offer interiors in leather or textile upholstery. 5 choices of colour-combinations available - real leather!

Virus 912 is made using the highest technology composites and best quality aviation alloys, including Titanium and Magnesium. This ensures a very long life-span of the aircraft and virtually maintenance-free operation. And if you do not intend to fly for a while, you can disassemble the Virus912 in only 15 minutes & all the controls are self-fitting, making this task as care-free as possible. You can also safely put away your plane with the help of the hangar hoist system with a lifting frame.
