Flight design financial stability

Talk about airplanes! At last count, there are 39 (and growing) FAA certificated S-LSA (special light sport aircraft). These are factory-built ready to fly airplanes. If you can't afford a factory-built LSA, consider buying an E-LSA kit (experimental LSA - up to 99% complete).

Flight design financial stability

Post by JJ Campbell »

I’m considering purchasing a CTSW. I know that flight design had some financial problems about four years ago. Does anyone know how they’re doing now I’m concerned about future support.

I think that is all in the past. I would not be concerned.

Their new 2 place model is debuting this Spring, a good sign that the company is investing substantial sums in R&D. FD's new owner is diversified and seems quite flush. I bought one a year ago, love the plane.
