The Aeropro Eurofox is a Slovak-built two-seat light high-winged aircraft. It qualifies as a light-sport aircraft in the United States. [1]
Aeropro was formed in 1990, and established its factory at Nitra in Slovakia. Deliveries of the Eurofox commenced in 1990. Since 1999, two versions have been produced, the conventional gear (taildragger) and the Tricycle gear. All versions have an enclosed cabin with two-side-by-side seats and folding wings. The Eurofox is sold in Europe as both factory complete and kit form, but is only available as a factory built aircraft in the U.S. [2] In 2018 a group of secondary school pupils in Kinross, Fife completed building a kit as part of a science project. [3]
From 2009, the Eurofox models were marketed in the US and Canada by Aerotrek Aircraft of Bloomfield, Indiana. This firm has named the tri-gear version as the Aerotrek A240 and the tailwheel version as the Aerotrek A220. Latest versions can be equipped with an optional parachute recovery system. [4] Both versions are offered with the 80 hp (60 kW) Rotax 912UL and the 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912ULS engines. [2]
The Eurofox has been sold in several countries, with over 170 having been delivered by mid-2004. [2] Production continues and over 500 aircraft were flying with private owners by 2017.
