Europa Aircraft is one of the most successful composite kit plane manufacturers in the UK, with the current models - Europa XS Trigear, Monowheel and Motor glider – gaining massive acclaim worldwide. There are over 400 Europas flying in 33 countries and many more in the build process, which places it as one of the most popular brands in the kit plane arena.

​​Most recently, Europa Aircraft announced the launch of the brand new Elite. This aircraft is an all composite, two seat, side by side aircraft with unique characteristics. Unrivaled speed, agility, style and luxury makes the Elite superior in its class. 

​The Elite has a spacious cockpit, expansive luggage bay and a choice of engines are enhanced by optional extras including a Ballistic Recovery Parachute, without a limit on colour schemes. Moreover, it will be easy to build, enabling even a novice builder to take to the skies in as little time as possible.

Europa Aircraft was born out of a dream to build a small composite aeroplane with low cost, high speed capability, and this remains the company’s philosophy today. The Elite is an inspired design based on that of a certified aircraft, and there is little on the market to offer its performance and elegance. Like Europa’s predecessor aircraft, it’s sure to become the kit plane of choice for self-build enthusiasts and pilots alike.

Europa Aircraft is a great example of British aviation success. Winner of a design award in the 1990’s, the Europa Classic sold in its hundreds and gained massive acclaim worldwide. Its successor, the Europa XS was named one of the UK’s Millennium Products, a world-beating design that is renowned for its extra speed, extra range, larger baggage space and comfort. The company plans to uphold this winning formula with the Elite, a brand new offering which will take the kitplane market by storm.
