Designed for your mission The Flight Design CTLS has defined performance, safety and comfort in the Ultralight, LSA and the EASA-(R)TC classes. The CTLS is also the one of the most popular light aircraft in the world due to it’s innovative design, advanced safety features and state-of-the-art avionics. The CTLS was designed specifically for the Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) category and offers many features as standard equipment that are optional on other aircraft. The flexibility of the design is evident from that fact that it can be flown as an FAA/ ASTM SLSA, with a EASA Restricted Type Certified...

The carbon/aramid fuselage on the CTLS is optimized for large internal space for the cabin and to reduce drag while providing cleaner airflow to the stabilizer. The smooth cantilever strutless wing also reduces drag and gives maximum visibility from the cockpit. The proprietary airfoil of the CTLS allows generous internal volume for the fuel tanks and is also structurally efficient. Advanced winglets reduce induced drag, improving climb, cruising range and aileron control at low speeds. The electriсally driven stabilizer trim tab incorporates a flexible elastic hinge, which is aerodynamically...

The Flight Design engineering staff created the CTLS with safety, performance and comfort in mind. A new aircraft should employ modern construction techniques for many reasons. The cockpit's carbon-aramid composite safety cabin helps to protect you and your passenger. The engine mount and carbon fuselage attach points reduce the possibility of engine intrusion into the cabin area. Standard four–point harnesses along with crushable elements of the fuselage construction absorb energy and reduce possible loads to the pilot and passenger. Strong windshield uprights and massive upper construction...

The CTLS cockpit has been designed following principles used in the passenger cabins of modern cars. Loads are transferred through the passenger area to the crush–zones at the end of the vehicle. The cabin area remains intact while the energy is absorbed in the peripheral areas. The following illustration generalizes the flow of force in the CTLS: • Forces in an impact start from the engine area through the engine mount (1) into the strong A– pillars (2) and to the center structural tunnel (5). • The door sills (3) are designed to transport the loads backwards and into the composite shell. •...

Production of the CTLS is performed by our young and highly motivated staff in Germany and Ukraine. Along with development of the original CT our own R&D and manufacturing company was created. We are constantly expanding our production capabilities to meet growing worldwide demand for our products. With expansion into certified production authorization, we have been audited and shown compliance to the applicable aviation standards at both facilities. Modern design tools such as CFD, FEA, laser scanning and production molds made with 5 axis CNC mills are now used to make components. The balance...

Comfortable seats with molded foam padding and pneumatically adjustable seat cushion and If you are finding it hard to find a Airplane that fits lumbar sections offer incomparable comfort you, try the CTLS. We think you will be pleasantly and easy adjustment in height and length. From surprised. these seats, the remarkable visibility of CTLS will ary modes and battery backup. With the Dynon Mode S Class 1 tranponder and a certified Dynon position source the CTLS GT is compliant with the FAA’s ADS-B 2020 "Out" requirements and also has complete ADS-B "n"features like Satellite based weather, traffic...

Engine Data Two models, two engine choices: CTLS/912S, CTLSi/912iS Depending on your specific requirements and preferences, choose either the well–proven, industry–standard Rotax 912ULS, developing a reliable 100 hp with twin carburetors, or the fuel– injected, Rotax 912iS, featuring a robust 100 hp with the fuel/air mixture precisely computer controlled for ultra–smooth power delivery, improved high altitude performance, more useful torque, reduced emissions and improved fuel economy. The 912iS modern fuel injection also results in surer, easier starts, lower maintenance and lower operating...

The further you fly, the more the CTLS superiority shows. With the CTLS’s comfortable cabin and molded foam seats and large baggage compartments, countrywide flights become an achiev- able and affordable adventure! The CTLS gives you the performance and freedom to make your flying dreams a reality! Operating Costs CTLS was built to get up and go. With low fuel consumption and low operating costs, you can afford to fly as much as you want.
