Commenting on this delivery, Matthew Harvey, Co-Managing Director of Aviation Trading, the official authorised trading partner of Czech Sport Aircraft said, “We are delighted to be confirming the delivery of this aircraft today.  G-DTFT now becomes the fourth PS-28 Cruiser to enter into service in the United Kingdom, where the aircraft is quickly establishing itself in the flight training market.  We wish to thank Durham Tees Flight Training for the trust and confidence they have shown in Czech Sport Aircraft in selecting the PS-28 Cruiser as the new generation of aircraft in their fleet.  We will soon be announcing the delivery of yet more PS-28 Cruiser to the United Kingdom as our cooperation with Kairos Aviation grows from strength to strength.”

Upon taking delivery of G-DTFT, Peter Foggin, Managing Director of Kairos Aviation Ltd, said, “The team at Durham Tees Flight Training has been eagerly awaiting the delivery of G-DTFT and we are very pleased to be accepting the aircraft here in Kunovice today.  Like many other flight schools throughout Europe, Durham Tees Flight Training realised that it was time to introduce a new cost-effective and state-of-the-art aircraft into its fleet for PPL training.  We are confident that G-DTFT will provide great opportunities to Durham Tees Flight Training and Kairos Aviation is standing by to provide all the necessary support and aftersales service.”

G-DTFT has been delivered in the ever-popular Classic configuration with analogue instrumentation and equipped with Stall Warning and the newly-certified Garmin GTR 225 radio.  The aircraft is finished with Moravia Blue Classic Design paint scheme and Phantom Black Standard Leather upholstery.

The PS-28 Cruiser is a double-seat aircraft of full metal construction.  The aircraft is arranged as a low-wing mono-plane with cantilevered wings and conventional empennage.  The PS-28 Cruiser is type certified by EASA for VFR Day operations according to the CS-LSA certification regulation and can be fully commercially operated in EASA countries or in countries where the PS-28 Cruiser obtained local CAA type certification.

Currently a total of over 500 PS-28 Cruiser and SportCruiser have been produced and delivered to customers throughout the world.  Over 200 units of SportCruiser have been delivered to the USA and over 150 units of SportCruiser and PS-28 Cruiser combined have been delivered to Europe where the company enjoys significant sales success.  Due to its robust construction, ease of maintenance and superior flight characteristics, the PS-28 Cruiser is the perfect platform for basic and advanced flight training, air clubs, basic military training, recreational use and air tourism.

The PS-38 Tourer is the first step in the evolution of the Czech Sport Aircraft product family based on the market-leading PS-28 Cruiser that has already firmly established itself as the benchmark new-generation aircraft for flight training in Europe.  The aircraft was formally launched by Czech Sport Aircraft at the Aero Friedrichshafen 2014 exhibition.  The PS-38 Tourer is a single engine, all-metal, high-wing monoplane of semi-monocoque structure with two side-by-side seats currently in development.  Czech Sport Aircraft is evaluating type certification of the PS-38 Tourer according to either the CS-VLA or ELA 1 certification regulation in Europe and expects the aircraft to satisfy demand for a new-generation, cost-effective, multi-application high-wing solution for cross-country flying, air tourism and law enforcement operations.

Czech Sport Aircraft is located in Kunovice in the heart of the Czech aviation valley. From 1954 up to the present day several aircrafts have been designed, developed and manufactured in Kunovice. The company was formed based on almost 80 years of aviation pedigree and history. Czech Sport Aircraft is focused on the research, design, development and production of Light Sport Aircraft for basic and advanced flight training, basic military pilot training, general recreational use and air tourism.
