High Resale Value – Durable composite airframes ensure long-term investment returns.
The DA20, DA40, and DA42 NG all feature Diamond’s industry-leading safety record, thanks to their robust composite airframes, advanced aerodynamics, and Garmin G1000 NXi avionics (DA40 & DA42). With built-in safety systems and excellent crashworthiness, these aircraft provide students with a secure and reliable training environment.
Flight schools need cost-effective solutions, and Diamond Aircraft deliver. The DA40’s fuel-efficient Austro AE300 Jet-A1 engine reduces operational costs, while the DA42 NG’s twin-engine efficiency offers multi-engine training at a fraction of the cost compared to traditional twin trainers.
