Alpi Aviation
Alpi Pioneer 300
Wood, carbon, and a surprisingly fast cruise.
The Pioneer 300 is Alpi's flagship two-seater: wooden structure with composite skins, retractable-gear options, and cruise speeds that rival all-carbon rivals. The Kite, Griffon and Acro variants cover touring to sport flying.
