Ellipse Spirit with ROTAX 916 iS Now Approved in Germany

DULV type certificate extended for the DUC TIGER 4-blade propeller

We are pleased to announce that the DULV type certificate for the Ellipse Spirit has been extended once again. Following the approval of the ROTAX 915 iS earlier this year, the Spirit is now also approved in Germany with the ROTAX 916 iS and the DUC TIGER 4-blade propeller, with both fixed and retractable landing gear.

The complete certificate is available for download: DULV Type Certificate – Ellipse Spirit, ROTAX 916 iS, DUC TIGER (PDF)

This means German pilots can now choose from both turbocharged versions of the Spirit: more performance at altitude, faster cross-country travel and the same comfortable cockpit.

A Big Thank You to Markus

None of this would have happened without our friend and German dealer, Markus Kaltenbach. Markus believed in this project from the very beginning. He spent countless hours on paperwork, phone calls and meetings, and kept pushing it forward whenever things slowed down. Markus, thank you for your patience, your energy and your friendship. This one is yours as much as ours!

Pilots in Germany interested in the Ellipse Spirit 915 or 916 are warmly invited to get in touch with Markus or with us at ellipse.aero.
