Aircraft › Diamond Aircraft › DA20 › DA20-A1
The Diamond DA20-A1 belongs to the two-seat DA20 family. The source-linked WBcalc configuration represents the DA20/100 equipped with the Rotax 912 S3 and a maximum permissible weight of 1,653 lb.
DA20 certification branches and operating data vary by configuration and jurisdiction, so the 1,653 lb DA20/100 configuration should not be treated as universal for every aircraft carrying a DA20-A1 family designation.
