The Sinus combines the true sense of a glider with unprecedented efficiency during powered flight. Takeoff and land on short runways, fly cross country and enjoy excellent gliding capability. All in the same aircraft.
Pipistrel’s Sinus range of aircraft are record breaking aircraft thanks to its aerodynamic efficiencies while operating at less than 10 liters of fuel per hour. With long range fuel tanks you can go further.
Powered by imagination and innovation the 15 meter wings and up to 27:1 Glide ratio when the propeller is feathered allows you to enjoy countless hours flying in the thermals without burning a drop of fuel. Of course when needed you can always turn the engine on to extend the range.
