Description

This 2016 VL3 Evolution RG is a well-equipped and proven cross-country ultralight, offering an excellent balance between performance, safety, and value. With 260 flight hours total time, this aircraft has been carefully maintained and is presented with a complete and controlled maintenance history. Powered by the reliable Rotax 912 ULS, the aircraft delivers smooth and efficient performance, perfectly suited for both local flying and longer touring flights. The retractable landing gear significantly improves cruise efficiency and speed, making this VL3 a serious travelling machine rather than a simple leisure aircraft. The cockpit is particularly well equipped, featuring dual Garmin G3X 10-inch displays, providing excellent situational awareness and redundancy. Pilot workload is further reduced thanks to the Garmin autopilot with GMC305 controller, allowing relaxed and precise flying on longer routes. For communication and surveillance, the aircraft is fitted with a Trig TT21 transponder and TY91 radio. Safety and visibility are further enhanced by the presence of TCAS (Garrecht TRX 1500), NAV, strobe and landing lights, and a Kannad ELT, making this aircraft very well suited for operation in busy European airspace. The Woodcomp SR3000/2WN constant-speed propeller (CSU) further optimises climb and cruise performance. A major advantage of this aircraft is its regulatory flexibility: – 525 kg registration possible in France – 600 kg registration possible in Belgium and the Netherlands Both the propeller and parachute were overhauled in 2022, adding additional peace of mind for the next owner. Comfort is enhanced with the extra thick pilot seat, ideal for longer flights. The aircraft is sold with one year additional warranty on all manufacturer parts, 5 hours of conversion training, and full support for ownership change, registration, and delivery via JMB Aviation.
