Evektor SportStar


The SportStar and EuroStar are a family of a two-seat, light sport aircraft, manufactured by Evektor-Aerotechnik of the Czech Republic and powered by a Rotax 912ULS, engine.
The SportStar was the first approved special light-sport aircraft and was named "S-LSA Aircraft of the Year" by AeroNews Network.

Design and development

The SportStar is an all-metal design made from anodized, corrosion-proofed aluminum. The airframe uses a pop-riveted and bonded construction, which the company claims will improve fatigue characteristics and result in a longer service life. The company also claims this construction technique results in better crashworthiness, the elimination of rivet zippering in an accident and quieter in-flight noise levels due to the elimination of oil-canning and flexing.
The SportStar was designed for towing sailplanes up to 1544 lbs gross weight and for towing banners up to 1479 sq ft.
