personal aviation
Blackwing represents the cutting edge of ultralight aviation, combining a next-generation airframe with unmatched comfort and performance. Designed with precision engineering, Blackwing offers exceptional flight performances marked by outstanding range, speed, and agility.
Our engineers use the latest cutting-edge technology to build the finest aircraft in its class.
Nearly every component of the Blackwing aircraft is designed, manufactured, and tested in-house. From the custom-built pedals to the carbon and glass fiber landing gear, every detail reflects precision engineering. The fully prepreg carbon airframe is the lightest and strongest in its class, capable of withstanding flight loads of +6/-3G, rigorously tested and approved.
The innovative design of the Blackwing aircraft stems from over 20 years of research in high-performance aerodynamics, delivering exceptional flight characteristics without the need for decelerating devices such as stall strips, vortex generators, or strakes. It is perfectly suited for both basic flight training and advanced piloting.

What pilots say
“A real joy after trying it.
Try it, and you’ll realise just how much this “ULM” has taken the lead in terms of comfort, speed, stability, agility, and safety.
“I wasn’t expecting that from an ultralight. The controls are precise, firm, and well-balanced. It flies like a real airplane, and the speed is impressive.”
“I was incredibly impressed by the safety and stability at low speeds. The stall characteristics are outstanding, even during a turning stall, the aircraft felt remarkably secure and controlled”
“I’ve been flying my Blackwing 600RG for a year now and have logged 150 hours so far. Having flown a Mooney 20J MSE (1994) for years, I can truly say the Blackwing feels like the Mooney of the 21st century”
“This is top of the line! The carbon finishing on the airframe is stunning and gives a real sense of solidity and craftsmanship.”
“The Blackwing lived up to my expectations in terms of performance: responsiveness, precision, and an unmatched sense of freedom. Ultra-precise handling, it corrects your mistakes without throwing you off balance. In short, it's the Formula 1 of the skies that forgives amateurs (like me)."
