About XtremeAir
XtremeAir is an EASA-certified company which develops and manufactures carbon fibre composite aerobatic aircraft. The company was founded in december 2005 with the goal to become the benchmark for acrobatic aircraft design and for composite manufacturing.
The prototype Xtreme 3000/Sbach (then called XA41) was built by a small but experienced team of 5 people in just 4 ½ months from construction start to its maiden flight on 19th May 2006. Just 5 months later, the aircraft won the German Aerobatic Championships in the Unlimited category.
With extensive composite and milling machinery on site in central Germany, the only major parts that we don´t build for our aircraft is the engine – which is a Lycoming AEIO-580-B1A – and the 203cm prop, which is made by MT. We place great emphasis on craftsmanship and attention to detail. Our very experienced XA-team is 45 people strong and still growing.
