As a Light Sport Aircraft!!



The Sonerai series of homebuilt aircraft represent an excellent return on money invested.

Fuselage constuction is 4130 steel tubing with fabric covering and the wings are made out of 2024-T3 aluminum.

The Sonerai I enjoys an excellent reputation for strength, speed and agility. It can handle +/- 6 G's with the "S" wing and will do 170 mph flat out with a Great Plains 2180cc engine.

The Sonerai II, The Original Design, is perhaps the most versatile VW powered homebuilt ever conceived. It is a 2 place (tandem) aircraft available as a mid-wing taildragger, a low-wing taildragger, and a low-wing tri-gear.

The Sonerai II Stretch, which is 18" longer than "The Original Design", is available as a low-wing taildragger and a low-wing tri-gear.

The Sonerai II and II Stretch is rated at +/- 4 G's at full gross or +/- 6 G's solo (750 pound maximum). With a Great Plains 2180cc engine it speeds through the sky at 140+ mph at full gross!

Average cost to build is $16,000 and a construction time of 800 to 1,000 hours. A pre-welded fuselage will reduce build time by 35%.
