About the Lancair Evolution Turbine

The Evektor EV-97 EuroStar is a Czech-built light sport aircraft that has become one of Europe's most successful LSA designs since its introduction in the late 1990s. Manufactured by Evektor-Aerotechnik in Kunovice, Czech Republic, the EuroStar was among the first aircraft certified under both European ultralight regulations and the FAA's new Light-Sport Aircraft category when it launched in 2004. Its low-wing configuration, side-by-side seating, and docile handling made it popular with flight schools and private owners seeking an affordable, modern alternative to aging trainers.

The type is powered by a single Rotax 912-series engine producing 80-100 horsepower, giving it a cruise speed around 100 knots and a range of approximately 600 nautical miles. With a maximum takeoff weight of just 1,320 pounds, the EuroStar sits at the upper limit of the LSA category, offering more payload and comfort than many ultralight competitors. Its all-composite construction and relatively spacious cockpit have made it a favorite for cross-country flying in the light sport segment.

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