The S-12XL Airaile went into production in March of 1990 and has enjoyed a progressive evolution. Improvements to cabin comfort, durability, and performance are the direct result of working with user input. The Airaile was designed to fulfill requests for a two-place pusher with side-by-side seating that was economical to buy, quick to build, easy to fly, and rugged enough to withstand the rigors of training. The Airaile only requires a two-car garage and common shop tools and skills to complete from start to finish.

The S-12S, “Super Airaile” is based on the S-12XL series. Changes made to the S-12S include a lower cabin and engine mount height. The result is less frontal area and a lower thrust line. Headroom is still more than adequate and will accommodate pilots up to 6ft 6in. Dacron coverings were replaced with traditional dope and fabric. To adapt the new covering system, mods to the wing and tail included new ribs all around, plus leading edge wraps for the wing. The total effect of the mods brought about an increase in cruise, climb, glide ratio, and a lower stall. In the air the handling is improved in both roll and yaw.

Build time for the Super Airaile will be on the average 200 to 300 hours more than the XL, but still within reason. Most builders should complete the plane in 6 to 12 months. This is due to the tremendous amount of pre-fabrication and precise fit of our parts. Quality airtime is built around a kit that is designed to be built by the first time builder. A good manual is at the center of fast build times.

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.

The S-9 Chaos has been in production since 1986. A stock S-9 equipped with a Rotax 503 47hp engine is potent enough to compete in sportsman class aerobatics. S-9’s have been equipped with up to 100 hp engines with spectacular results. With full inverted capability, a Chaos can achieve advanced aerobatics. As with all RANS kits, the Chaos comes welded and pre-fabricated, reducing assembly time and increasing precision.

The S9 Chaos powered by a Rotax 503 has wing and header fuel tanks, a four point harness plus lapstrap, and open cockpit with optional canopy.

The design of the S-7 originated out of the need to train Coyote I pilots; so the cockpit was set up the same with throttle left, stick in the middle. Named the Courier in honour of the Helio Courier, the S-7 is very STOL. The first one flew in 1985, but this sturdy two-seat taildragger has evolved considerably in the last 23 years.

Built with keeping-it-simple in mind the original plane weighed in at only 390 pounds with a 503 Rotax. It flew very well for the low horsepower, but soon was fitted to the 65 HP 532.

Over the years the basic plane stayed true to form, a light, simple plane, with traditional construction, minus the traditional headaches. However, in 2001 the S-7C, a much-refined version, was certified under the primary category. This plane represents 7 years of process to obtain the Type Certificate. Introduced in 2003 the S-7S is a kit form of the “C”. The S-7S also complies with the new Sport Plane Rule.

Because the S-7S complies with the standards for sport planes we will be able to offer this plane in ready to fly form. Designated the S-7LS, this form of a ready to fly Courier is in production.

In 2008, for $89,000 you could purchase a fully equipped S-7LS, with such amenities, as Garmin moving map GPS/COM, and Transponder.

The S-7S kit is a version of the certified Courier.

The model with a Rotax 912 engine and a 71 inch Warpdrive, ground adjustable propeller, gets 105 mph cruise at 5,000 rpm. Take-off roll at the maximum all up weight is less then 90m in nil wind and climb rate is around 700 ft/min. With one up and full fuel (60 lt), it can get airborne in 50m and climb at 1,000 ft/min. Fuel burn is around 13 litres per hour.

The RANS S 7C Courier has gotten a more powerful engine. The Courier boasts the 100 horsepower Rotax 912S four¬-stroke aircraft engine, replacing the 80 horsepower Rotax 912 previously in the airplane. The new engine, says the company, allowed designers to stretch the fuselage, increasing the power of the tail, resulting in better stability and better all around handling, including on landing. The bigger engine delivering an eight percent faster cruise speed (up to around 110 mph) and a much improved rate of climb.

The RANS S-7S Courier was offered as an Experimental/Amateur-Built kit and also as an FAA-approved, factory-built SLSA.

The 2012 updated S-7LS Courier, Cub-style tandem high-winger remained an S-LSA. Base price: $97,500 base (no avionics).

Since beginning Coyote II production in 1989 over 1600 Coyote II’s have been produced. The cabin is roomy fitting from 5’2″ to 6’6″, and weather tight. With the optional heater, fly year round. The Coyote II is STOL, with fast cruise 105 MPH to 120 MPH, depending on wing and engine options.

The sport wing offers great performance in both STOL and cruise speeds. At 30’8” span and a slight taper the handling is with little adverse yaw and snappy role rate. The sport wing will function well on floats and at high altitude. The advanced construction of the sport wing also allows a very precise shape airfoil in short build times.

With the standard wing the stock 80 HP Rotax 912 UL engine cruise speeds are in excess of a 100 mph. Fuel burn rates of less than 5 gallons per hour common. The 100 HP ups the cruise a few MPH, with a large increase in climb, all at a small increase in fuel burn. Overhaul times as high as 2000 hours have been reported by operators.

On December 23 2008 RANS certified the Coyote II as an SLSA. Designated S-6LS (for light sport) the Coyote II S-6LS, the design has been in production as an experimental aircraft since 1989. With almost 2000 flying examples in operation world wide.

Constructed using welded steel cage and light tubular aluminum alloy tail cone and flying surfaces. The design is classic high wing side by side seating, offered in tailwheel and trike landing gear configurations.

The S-6ES went into production in April 1990. The ES denotes “extended span”. It is the second generation of the original S-6 design. Increased wing span through a fuselage redesign resulted in improved performance and appearance. The ES denotes “extended span”. The design goals that the S-6 achieved represented a significant advance in quick-build kit planes. The S6ES series takes this goal even further. Using mostly all pre-finished parts and pre-sewn skins, the average build time is between 350 and 400 hours. Coyote II’s can be built in the confines of an average garage normal shop tools and skills.

The S-6ES and S-6S Sport share the same fuselage, tricycle landing gear. They differ in wing (both size and planform). There are three choices of wing for the S-6ES and S-6S. The standard wing on both spans 34.5 ft with 155 sq.ft area. The Area-2 wing employs tapered flaps and ailerons that increase the wing area by about 10 sq.ft. The 116 wing is of tapered planform, reduces the span to 29.5 ft and 116 sq.ft. area.

The sport wing is standard and offers a 9:1 glide, the roll rate is light and adverse yaw very minimal. The presewn wings skins feature few seams. The sport wing is the most advanced dacron covered wing on the market, with such features as a leading edge skin, and root rib tensioning, and CNC stamped aluminum ribs.
Of 4130 tube frame, fabric covered.

The Coyote II had four Rotax engine choices; 503-DC 52 hp, 582 65 hp, 912 80 hp, or 912S 100hp.

In 2012 the previous S-LSA—the S-19LS Venterra low-wing, all-aluminum cruiser and S-6LS Coyote II (2,000 delivered) moved back to E-LSA or EAB kits-only status.
