• Virus SW is the only light aircraft that combines pure speed with unprecedented fuel economy. More than 1000 units were already sold world-wide, winning the hearts & acclaims of private owners, aviation professionals, training organisations & military instructors alike, just like it won the NASA challenge. Twice! Since the victories at PAV challenge 2007 & NASA GAT centennial challenge 2008, the Virus SW has been further refined & optimised for even better performance.
• Virus SW is able to operate from elevations from sea-level up to 15.000 feet, take-off & land from short runways & over obstacles thanks to unique airbrakes, is the quietest light aircraft & has one of the lowest operating costs in its category.
• Speed, efficiency & ultra-long range are signature for Pipistrel. Virus SW cruises faster, goes much further & flies higher than the competitors, all this while burning less fuel! Imagine flying around at over 260 km/h (140 kts), easily overflying terrain higher than 4500 m (15.000 ft) & covering distances of over 1500 km (800 NM). With Virus SW you can. All this & much more! The aircraft can be equipped by either the Rotax 912 (80 hp) 912S (100 hp), 912 iS (100 hp) powerplants & a large variety of avionics options.
• Thanks to its superior aerodynamic efficiency, state-of-the-art composite material structure & lowest fuel consumption figures in the category, the Virus SW is ideal for High speed cross-country flying, surveillance missions, ab-initio-, advanced & extreme manoeuvre training, aerial photography & high-mountain operations. Did you know that the Virus SW has the glide ratio of 15:1 & can glide further in case of emergency than most aeroplanes?
• Virus SW can be called the 300 km/h (160 kts) ultralight/microlight/LSA, but it is much more than that! With a high turbulence penetration speed (green arc) & the VNE of 302 km/h (163 kts), you can take advantage of high-speed cruise even in strong turbulence. The cockpit remains quiet & comfortable throughout the flight! The Virus SW has the largest flight safety margins in its category & is equipped with ballistic parachute rescue system, offering a chance of rescue even at maximum speeds.
