Today’s Top Pick is a 2007 Fantasy Air Allegro LSA.

The arrival 20 years ago of the FAA regulations establishing the LSA category sparked a wave of new aircraft designs in the U.S. from established manufacturers and a number of startups. The new rules also opened the door to many aircraft that already were on the market in other countries, such as the Fantasy Air Allegro for sale here.

Designed and built in the Czech Republic, the Allegro had an established following and a reputation for quality that attracted prospective business partners in the U.S. Arranging to import complete, ready-to-fly LSAs such as the Allegro looked like a faster route to market than starting an aircraft business from scratch. While that theory made sense, the process of bringing the Allegro to the U.S. market was complicated and lengthy. Still, the aircraft has sold well with pilots who want an LSA with strong performance for the category and the ability to travel cross-country with reasonable comfort and speed.

The Allegro’s fuselage is built with Kevlar-reinforced composite around a steel-framed cockpit. Its wing and tail are aluminum. As LSAs go, the Allegro is known for its relatively roomy two-seat cabin and engaging, sporty flight characteristics. The airplane can climb at 1,000 fpm and cruise at more than 100 mph while burning about 3.5 gph.

This 2007 Allegro has 375 hours since new on the airframe and its 80 hp Rotax 912 engine. The aircraft holds 16.5 gallons of usable fuel and can operate on 100LL or automotive gasoline. Its basic “steam gauge” panel includes a Garmin 396 GPS and a transponder with ADS-B Out.

Pilots interested in owning a light sport aircraft with impressive climb performance and good cross-country cruise speeds should consider this 2007 Fantasy Air Allegro, which is available for $55,000 on AircraftForSale.

You can arrange financing of the aircraft through FLYING Finance. For more information, email info@flyingfinance.com.
