The Aeroplane

Mark Jefferies flies the German designed and built Extra 300S because power and performance are of paramount importance. This single seat variant is one of only 31 sold worldwide, and has even better performance than the more common two seat variant – not least due to the consequent saving in weight – this aircraft has staggering power-to-weight performance.

The aeroplane is built specifically for World class  unlimited aerobatics, with a wing designed to ultimately withstand a bone-crunching +/- 25G, i.e. 25 times the force of gravity.

The airframe is constructed from steel tubing, carbon fibre, wood and a carbon/Kevlar wing skin. The combination of these high-tech materials combined with its weight saving single seat configuration give this aeroplane stunning performance. Roll rates exceed 360 degrees per second, and speeds varying from 260 mph to, well backwards!
