About the ARV Aviation ARV-1 Super2

The ARV Super2 is a British ultralight side-by-side two-seat aircraft designed in the 1980s by Bruce Giddings as an affordable homebuilt for amateur constructors. Built primarily from wood with fabric covering, the Super2 was conceived during the UK's microlight boom and offered sport pilots an economical path to ownership with straightforward construction techniques and modest operating costs. The design featured a high wing, fixed tricycle gear, and typically mounted a 65-80 horsepower Rotax or Limbach engine, giving it a cruise speed around 95 knots and a range of approximately 400 nautical miles.

Though never produced in large numbers compared to American homebuilts like the RV series, the Super2 found a loyal following among European builders who valued its docile handling, good short-field performance, and relatively spacious cockpit for the ultralight category. The type remains active in small numbers across the UK and Canada, where it serves recreational pilots seeking simple, low-cost flying. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
