About the WA-54 Atlantic
The Wassmer WA-54 Atlantic is a single-engine fixed-wing touring aircraft built in France. It suits private owners and travelers seeking a durable and easily maintained four-seat lightplane featuring an all-plastic glassfibre structure and a tricycle landing gear configuration.
Background history shows that the manufacturer began developing this plastic aircraft concept to provide an economical private transport option. Following initial versions equipped with lower-power engines, the company introduced this variant featuring increased baggage space and a higher-output engine before production concluded.
