Extra 300 Aircraft

The Extra 300 is the iconic two-seat unlimited aerobatic aircraft — a mid-wing carbon-and-steel monoplane powered by a 300 hp Lycoming AEIO-540 swinging a constant-speed prop, stressed to roughly +/-10 g with a blistering roll rate. Variants include the 300L (lighter low-wing), the 300LX and the single-seat competition 300SC. It is the workhorse of advanced and unlimited aerobatic training, competition and airshow flying.
