Our Aircraft Fleet

Modern, safe, and built for learning.

The Fleet

Three Modern Light Sport Aircraft

Every aircraft in our fleet was selected for one purpose: making you a better, safer pilot. All three feature glass cockpit avionics, Garmin GPS, Rotax engines, and full airframe parachute systems — safety and technology working together.

Our aircraft are available for training with a Coast Aero Ventures CFI or for rental by qualified Sport and Private Pilot certificate holders.

Airframe Parachute Safety System

Safety First

Every Aircraft Has a Full Airframe Parachute

All three aircraft in our fleet are equipped with a Ballistic Recovery System (BRS) — a deployable parachute that attaches to the entire aircraft structure, not just the occupants.

In the unlikely event of a catastrophic in-flight emergency — engine failure at low altitude, structural failure, or a pilot becoming incapacitated — pulling the BRS handle deploys a large parachute that brings the entire aircraft to the ground at a survivable descent rate.

This is especially meaningful for student pilots. Knowing there is an ultimate safety net allows students to focus on learning rather than anxiety, and gives parents and family members peace of mind.

100% of our fleet has BRS parachute systems
3 aircraft, each with independent safety deployment
