Socata TB-30 Epsilon Aircraft

Originally built by SOCATA, now part of Daher (TBM series).

The Socata TB-30 Epsilon is a tandem two-seat military primary trainer — a fully aerobatic, 300 hp Lycoming AEIO-540-powered aircraft developed for the French Air Force and used by several other air arms. On the civilian market the Epsilon is a warbird/aerobatic aircraft: military provenance, spirited performance, tandem seating and aerobatic capability. A niche aircraft for warbird collectors and aerobatic pilots rather than a touring/training platform; ownership involves warbird-specific maintenance, parts sourcing and (in some jurisdictions) experimental/limited category considerations.
