Overview

  • Icon set out to create an aircraft so different it would attract an entirely new market. Instead of focusing on traditional GA buyers, the company aims at youthful, adventurous consumers who have propelled the “power sports” industry (which includes fast boats, motorcycles, sports cars, and personal watercraft) to $30 billion in annual sales. And by designing the A5 to comply with Light Sport aircraft rules, new adherents can fly it with as little as 20 hours of flight training instead of private pilots with a minimum of 40.
