ERCO / Ercoupe A-2

The Alon A-2 Aircoupe is a model in the Aircoupe / Ercoupe family. It is described here as a Two-seat low-wing piston single.

The Ercoupe/Aircoupe lineage changed manufacturers and model names while preserving the distinctive low-wing, twin-tail concept. Because engine, gross-weight and control-system details vary by model and modification, each page keeps the model-specific baseline separate and directs operational use to the aircraft's current approved records. The Alon A-2 increases the represented normal-category gross weight to 1,450 lb. Published comparative data identify a 24 U.S. gallon fuel capacity for this model baseline and a simple two-seat cabin with aft baggage.

Standard total fuel: 24 U.S. gallons.

Numerous surviving Ercoupes and Aircoupes have STC engine, rudder-pedal and gross-weight modifications. Verify the data plate and current aircraft records rather than assuming the stock historical specification still applies.

Maximum takeoff weight: 1,450 lb. Maximum combined baggage: 75 lb. The represented maximum weight is 1,450 lb with 24 U.S. gallons total fuel and a 75 lb baggage allowance. Use the aircraft-specific current empty weight and CG. Use the approved aircraft-specific documentation and current weight-and-balance record for operational calculations.
