Diamond Aircraft, That Is

The folks at Diamond Aircraft are bringing pretty much their entire fleet of airplanes to AirVenture, so there will be much to see at Diamond’s exhibit next week.

“We're excited to be displaying this year, with a larger exhibit than ever before. Our new central location is perfect for showcasing the entire Diamond line-up,” said Peter Maurer, President of Diamond Aircraft. “Our D-JET mock-up, refurbished to reflect the production configuration cockpit and cabin, will join D-JET S/Ns 002 and 003, the latter powered by the more powerful Williams International FJ33-5a turbofan engine. Two newly certified DA42 twins will be there – the 360 hp Lycoming powered DA42 L360, and shown for the first time in North America, the DA42 NG with Diamond’s proprietary Austro Engine AE300 powerplants is expected to be a major attraction. There will also be several versions of DA40s and DA20s. We are pleased to again offer the Diamond Austria HK36 motorglider, back after several years’ absence from the US market and featuring many  mprovements.”

Diamond will also be revealing a new configuration of the DA20, on Monday August 27, that is sure to create lots of buzz, especially with flight schools and sport flyers.

“We encourage all pilots to visit the Diamond booth to see general aviation’s broadest range of modern certified airplanes that lead the industry in safety and innovation,” Peter Maurer added. “In addition to expert sales consultants, we have financing and taxation experts from Airfleet Capital and Advocate Consulting on site, to advise you on any potential acquisition, now or in future.”
