Our Fleet

Three flying groups, one single standard: general aviation, microlights and gliders. Training, mountain and cross-country machines, all available to members at the “Arturo Dell'Oro” airfield in Belluno.

General Aviation

High-wing and low-wing aircraft for PPL training, type conversions, glider aerotowing and mountain flying.

Piper PA-28 Cadet I-BLAE
I-BLAE

Piper PA-28 Cadet

The aircraft of our powered flight school. Built in 1989, with a 160 HP Lycoming engine, fixed-pitch propeller and fixed gear; airframe and engine have recently been returned to zero hours. Easy to handle, well suited to training and leisure flying.

I-ESML

Aviat Husky A-1-180

Used for tailwheel ratings. With its 180 HP it is particularly suited to mountain flying, it tows the gliders, and it can operate from short and sloping strips (STOL).

Gliders

The fleet of the largest gliding community in the Dolomites: two-seat trainers, club single-seaters and cross-country machines.

Schleicher ASK-21 I-IVWM
I-IVWM

Schleicher ASK-21

The travelling companion that has raised generations of pilots. The ASK21 is the training glider that took us from our first tentative touches on the controls all the way to our first solo, turning emotion into skill. Strong, dependable, forgiving: in an instructor’s hands it is a safe guide, in an experienced pilot’s it becomes an ally that gives real satisfaction from one thermal to the next. To all of us it is still the legendary “Whiskey Mike”, the glider that taught us to fly.

A two-seat trainer in the aerobatic category (from +6.5 to −4.0 g) and notably stable. Glide ratio 34 at 90 km/h with two pilots and at 85 km/h solo; maximum speed 280 km/h, manoeuvring speed 180 km/h.

Schempp-Hirth Janus B D-5895
D-5895

Schempp-Hirth Janus B

Our flagship two-seater. It combines high performance in speed and glide efficiency with advanced management of the flight parameters through the use of flaps. Demanding at first, but ideal for mentoring, it lets pilots learn the technique and the right mindset for cross-country flying.

DG-300 D-7849
D-7849

DG-300

The flagship glider of our club: advanced aerodynamics and excellent performance. It asks for attentive, prompt handling, because it is an honest aircraft: it answers at once and demands precision, but in return it gives immense satisfaction to whoever can bring out its qualities. This is the glider for those moving into performance flying, where technique, feel and decision start to make the real difference.

A single-seater designed by Wilhelm Dirks and built by Glaser-Dirks from 1983 in more than 500 examples, still widely flown as a competition glider in the lower classes and in club contests.

Rolladen-Schneider LS1-f D-0740
D-0740

Rolladen-Schneider LS1-f

When the horizon is no longer enough. The pilot who has found his feet looks further and further out, helped by this fine aircraft that combines easy handling with advanced performance. It is the link between flying by improvisation and instinct and flying that is planned, aimed at steadily improving one’s own ability.

A single-seater from the late 1960s, a winning design from the very start. Wingspan 15 m, length 6.75 m, wing area 9.75 m²; glide ratio 38.5, stall at 70 km/h, VNE 250 km/h, retractable gear. The “f” version introduced the one-piece canopy and all glass fibre construction.

Grob Astir CS D-7406
D-7406

Grob Astir CS

The glider on which a newly qualified pilot can build on what was learned in ground school, meeting the practical side of flying out in the field but always in safety. An excellent starting point that opens onto the endless world of cross-country flying, together with the thrill of those first flights in a single-seater.

A standard class single-seater designed in 1974, which became the ideal machine for clubs across Europe thanks to its strength and simplicity of use. Retractable gear, glide ratio 34, stall at only 59 km/h.

Grob Astir CS D-7226
D-7226

Grob Astir CS

The fleet’s second Astir CS, twin of D-7406: a Standard Class single-seater with a retractable undercarriage, a glide ratio of 34 and a stall at 59 km/h. Having two of the same type means that on a good day two pilots can fly together without waiting their turn, and that anyone checked out on one is already ready on the other.
