About the Aero Composites Sea Hawker

The Aero Composites Sea Hawker is a modern American amphibious light-sport aircraft designed for pilots who want the freedom to operate from both conventional runways and water. Built in Florida and introduced in the early 2010s, the Sea Hawker combines composite construction with a high-wing configuration and retractable landing gear, allowing smooth transitions between land and sea operations. Powered by a single Rotax 912-series engine producing around 100 horsepower, the aircraft seats two side-by-side and offers respectable cruise speeds near 95 knots while maintaining the docile handling characteristics expected of an LSA-category amphibian.

The Sea Hawker's composite airframe keeps empty weight low enough to meet light-sport limits while providing corrosion resistance critical for saltwater operations. Its relatively compact dimensions and folding-wing option make it practical for storage in standard T-hangars, addressing a common challenge for seaplane owners. The type appeals to recreational pilots seeking versatile backcountry and coastal access without the operating costs and complexity of larger amphibians like the Icon A5 or legacy designs such as the Lake Buccaneer.

SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
