About the Wildcat Aircraft Wildcat

The Wildcat is a single-seat, single-engine taildragger designed and manufactured by Wildcat Aircraft as an experimental amateur-built kit. Introduced in the early 2000s, it represents a modern take on classic light sport aviation, combining traditional tube-and-fabric construction with contemporary materials and design refinements. The aircraft is built to comply with Light Sport Aircraft regulations where applicable, featuring a maximum takeoff weight of 1,320 pounds and straightforward stick-and-rudder flying characteristics that appeal to recreational pilots seeking an affordable, back-to-basics flying experience.

Powered by a variety of small piston engines typically in the 65-100 horsepower range, the Wildcat offers modest performance well-suited to local flying and short grass strips. Its low stall speed of around 35 knots in landing configuration and never-exceed speed of 120 knots define a comfortable envelope for sport flying. The open-cockpit or enclosed-canopy variants provide builders with customization options, and the aircraft's simple systems and construction methods make it accessible to first-time kit builders. While not designed for cross-country speed or payload, the Wildcat excels in its intended role as an economical, fun-to-fly personal aircraft.
