First flown in 1986, the Sakota can cross country or aerobat. The small but potent wing gives it high performance in short take-offs and 120 mph cruise speeds and the tapered wing reduces drag. A bubble canopy and large under wing windows offer exceptional visibility. Comfort for two in the 37" wide cabin with well upholstered bench seat. A quick build kit was available. Fly aerobatics solo and cross country with 2.
