About the Evektor-Aerotechnik SportStar

The Evektor SportStar is a Czech-built light sport aircraft that became one of the first LSAs certified under the FAA's 2004 Sport Pilot rule, helping define the modern recreational aviation category. Manufactured by Evektor-Aerotechnik in Kunovice, Czech Republic, the SportStar is a low-wing, side-by-side two-seater powered by a 100-horsepower Rotax 912ULS engine, designed to meet the strict 1,320-pound maximum takeoff weight limit that defines the LSA class in the United States. Its composite construction and efficient aerodynamics deliver cruise speeds around 115 knots while maintaining docile handling characteristics and a stall speed low enough to satisfy LSA requirements.

The type has found favor with flight schools and private owners seeking an economical yet capable cross-country platform that can be flown with only a sport pilot certificate. With a useful load of approximately 500 pounds and a range exceeding 600 nautical miles, the SportStar bridges the gap between traditional ultralight aircraft and certified general aviation singles. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
