Robin DR400 Aircraft
The Robin DR400 is the iconic French four-seat tourer — a wood-and-fabric low-wing aircraft with the distinctive cranked ("bent") wing derived from Jodel designs, a sliding bubble canopy and famously light, pleasant handling. Economical on a Lycoming O-320/O-360, with excellent visibility and short-field manners, the DR400 is a hugely popular club and private touring aircraft across Europe. Variants include the 140B Major, 180 Régent, 120 Dauphin and the 500.
