About the Evektor EV-97 EuroStar SL

The Evektor EV-97 EuroStar is a Czech-built light sport aircraft that exemplifies the European ultralight tradition, designed to meet both European microlight regulations and the U.S. Light Sport Aircraft category introduced in 2004. Manufactured by Evektor-Aerotechnik in Kunovice, Czech Republic, the EuroStar first flew in the late 1990s and became one of Europe's most successful factory-built light sport designs, offering side-by-side seating, all-metal construction, and docile handling characteristics that appeal to both flight schools and private owners seeking economical cross-country capability.

Powered by a single Rotax 912 series engine producing 80-100 horsepower, the EuroStar cruises at approximately 100 knots while burning just 4-5 gallons per hour, delivering a range of around 500 nautical miles with standard tanks. Its low stall speed of 37 knots in landing configuration and benign spin characteristics make it forgiving for student pilots, while the relatively high never-exceed speed of 145 knots and structural cruising speed of 108 knots provide respectable cross-country performance for a light sport aircraft. The type's 1,320-pound maximum takeoff weight places it precisely at the U.S. LSA limit, and its short takeoff roll of under 900 feet suits operations from grass strips and small airfields throughout Europe.
