Diamond Aircraft Industries

Diamond Aircraft Industries manufactures certified piston aircraft for private owners, flight schools and special mission operators. The company builds single engine and twin engine airplanes. Its goal is to set the highest standards possible in aircraft production while delivering reliable and efficient aircraft that are less damaging to the environment.

For private owners, Diamond offers the DA20 series two seat trainer, the four seat DA40 series, and the five seat DA50 RG with retractable gear. The twin engine line includes the four seat DA42 and the larger DA62, which carries up to seven passengers. The DA62 moves more passengers and equipment farther and faster than anything else in its class. The DA50 RG combines spacious luxury with high tech features.

Flight schools receive a sole source solution that includes aircraft, simulators and training tools. The training fleet includes the DA40 and DA20 for single engine instruction, the DA42 for multi engine instruction, and the all electric eDA40 trainer. Diamond also produces the DART two seat aerobatic turboprop trainer, which handles load factors of plus six and minus four g. Flight schools can also use the Diamond Flight Simulator for ground based training.

Special mission operators use the DA42 MPP and DA62 MPP aerial platforms. These aircraft provide endurance of up to eight hours. The DA42 MPP carries a payload of about 634 kilograms. The DA62 MPP carries about 710 kilograms and serves as a solution for environmental surveillance missions. The company also supplies ground station solutions.

The Diamond Aircraft Group includes Austro Engine. Austro Engine produces the E4 series and R series engines used in Diamond aircraft.

Service and support cover factory maintenance, after sales help, flight training and maintenance training. Diamond maintains service centers across multiple continents. Support regions include Europe, North America, South America, Australia, New Zealand, the Middle East, Africa and Asia.

The company designs aircraft for low fuel consumption. The DA40 series burns roughly 19.5 liters per hour at sixty percent power and has a range near 1,730 kilometers. The DA42 uses about 39.4 liters per hour at sixty percent power and reaches speeds up to 197 knots. The DA50 RG offers a maximum range of about 1,396 kilometers. The eDA40 runs entirely on electric power and provides about 45 minutes of flight time plus reserves. It seats two to three people.
