Sonaca 200 Trainer Pro Flight School Order Doubled

Aero Locarno Signs For Five Additional Aircraft

In March 2020, Aero Locarno (Switzerland) signed an order for 5 Sonaca 200 Trainer Pros. The Approved-Training Organisation has just decided to double the initial order bringing the revised order to a total of 10 aircraft.

“Even though we are going through a difficult time in aviation, we are seeing a steady demand for training which justifies the investment in a brand new fleet. We feel the need to harmonize our aircraft fleet by acquiring additional Sonaca 200 Trainer Pros. The Sonaca 200s will replace our old Cessnas. It goes without saying that glass cockpit and state-of-the-art aircraft will further spark interest in our school," Stefano Buratti, Aero Locarno CEO.

The 6 first aircraft will be delivered starting in February 2021.

The Swiss Air Force recently certified the Sonaca 200 Trainer Pro for the initial aptitude assessment programme called “SPHAIR”. The objective of the SPHAIR programme is to discover and assess young talents for a career as a pilot in the Swiss Air Force or general aviation. To earn SPHAIR certification, the Sonaca 200 has undergone a thorough assessment on the ground and in flight.

Sonaca Aircraft's activity covers the development, certification and marketing of the "Sonaca 200", a single-engine two-seater aircraft, specially designed and adapted for schooling and leisure flights. EASA certified in the CS-VLA airworthiness category, the Sonaca 200 uses a robust all-metal structure, offers good flight behavior, a decent payload and a low operating cost.
