XA42 Gold

The XA42 Gold represents a unique variant of the recognized aerobatic aircraft. We give the pilot a unique experience and offer him the opportunity to have maximum comfort for travel without compromising the full capabilities of performing unlimited aerobatics.
Each single detail on this aircraft was carefully designed to make the pilot comfortable and safe. The increased luggage compartment with access from the outside, combined with a canopy actuated step and a state of the art full glass cockpit with autopilot, contribute to a first class flight.
Don’t compromise! Just have both: Luxury and Sportiness.
