Sale Pending For sale is a meticulously cared for 2024 Pipistrel Alpha Trainer, used as a time building plane for the single owner/operator since new. The 395 hours of total time were spent mostly cruising on cross countries in the early summer mornings. This plane was never used for flight instruction, practicing maneuvers, or pattern work/landings. It has always been hangared in a heated/insulated hangar with religious use of the installed engine preheating system. The last annual/condition inspection was performed 09/2025 by Northwest Flight Service, where all maintenance has been performed since new. This plane followed the Pipistrel and Rotax recommended maintenance intervals with oil changes every 50hrs and condition inspections every 100hrs. The plane ran on roughly 95% mogas since new using Maverick ethanol free premium fuel. Avgas was only used for the occasional long cross country when mogas was not available.

About the Pipistrel Alpha Trainer

The Pipistrel Alpha Trainer is a fixed-gear, Rotax 912-powered Light Sport two-seater designed as a low-cost trainer and time-builder. Derived from the Virus airframe but simplified (fixed gear, fixed-pitch prop), it is one of the most economical ways to train or build hours — very low fuel burn, light controls and a modern composite airframe. It competes with the Cessna 162, Tecnam P2002 and Flight Design CT in the LSA trainer market.

Produced 2013.
