About the Aviator Aircraft Aviator

The Aviator is an American light-sport aircraft designed and manufactured by Aviator Aircraft of Caldwell, Idaho. Introduced in the mid-2000s, it represents a modern take on the classic high-wing, taildragger configuration optimized for recreational flying under the FAA's sport pilot rules. The aircraft features a welded steel-tube fuselage with fabric covering, folding wings for trailer storage, and a spacious side-by-side cockpit with excellent visibility—hallmarks of the traditional bush plane aesthetic adapted to the LSA weight and performance envelope.

Powered by a Rotax 912-series engine producing 80-100 horsepower, the Aviator delivers respectable short-field performance and docile handling characteristics that appeal to both sport pilots and seasoned aviators seeking a simple, affordable flying experience. Its 1,320-pound maximum gross weight places it squarely at the LSA limit, while cruise speeds in the 90-100 knot range and a stall speed below 40 knots make it well-suited for grass strips and backcountry operations. The folding-wing design is a practical feature for owners with limited hangar space, allowing the aircraft to be stored in a standard garage and towed behind a vehicle.

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