The Pipistrel Virus 121SW is a fun, fast two-seater that we use in the training for long navigation flights. The Virus is the most fuel-efficient high-speed cruiser and certainly the fastest high-wing aircraft in its category. The aircraft is made of ultra-modern composite materials, lightweight, robust, and has an unprecedented useful payload of more than 300 kg (660 lbs).
How does it work?
Renting the Pipistrel Virus costs €235 per hour. One hour is 60 minutes, which are the minutes indicated by the Hobbs meter. If the flight duration significantly differs, we will calculate (or settle) retrospectively at €3.92 per minute.
This rate includes
- VAT
- Fuel
- Maximum two terrain landings or one overland
- CO2 compensation in collaboration with TreeByTree
On which days and times can I rent your aircraft?
This depends on our lesson schedule. In principle, booking earlier means more flexibility. Flying is possible within the airport's operating hours (Teuge) and as long as E-Flight personnel are present in the building for supervision.
You can see the available dates and times when you select "Choose date and time" on this page. You'll see slots of one hour with a half-hour margin before and after the slot. If you want to fly for multiple hours, simply book the consecutive slots or call 055 203 2230 and we'll help you out.
If nothing suits you, you can coordinate by phone to find what works best for you.
If you want to go away longer with our aircraft, for example half a day or longer, this is only possible when we don't need the aircraft ourselves. If you want to stay away for several days, we will also charge a daily rental. Please contact us for this.
