SportStar Press cuttings

There have been many articles written about the SportStar and its sibling, the Eurostar, including several independent flight tests.

Please note: Australian aircraft differ in a number of ways from European and USA versions. These articles are intended as a guide to the aircraft we sell - please arrange for a test flight so you can experience the aircraft for yourself!
