DART 550

Used

The DART will be the world's first civil certified all-carbon fiber tandem, 2-seat aerobatic trainer with sidestick control and ejection seats. The aerobatic trainer will be available in different variants and with different engine power ratings, seat configuration and/or avionics options for diverse customer needs. From the very beginning, Diamond Aircraft knew that the DART series will be something unmatched on the market. In the long run, it will eliminate old generation trainers from the market.

The DART-550 is powered by a 550 hp General Electric GE H75-100 turboprop engine featuring an electronic engine and propeller control (EEPC) system, a five blade, full feather and full reverse MT propeller.

The DART-550 comes with a G3000 dual glass cockpit and Martin Baker MK16 ejection seats. The DART's cockpit concept includes a real and fully independent tandem G3000 dual glass cockpit with a bird strike proof canopy, electrically adjustable seat height and an optimized ejection system. The MK 16 lightweight escape system is designed to train students in basic flying skills. It optimizes the pilot field of view, improves comfort and pilot efficiency, and provides increased reliability and maintainability. The ejection performance is optimized throughout the escape envelope, from zero height at zero velocity in a near level altitude through to 370 knots. Optional avionics and ejection seats are available on request.
