The EQUATOR AIRCRAFT COMPANY is going to prepare the production of its new Corporate and Utility Aircraft Modular System named Equator, a total new generation of high performance airplanes for land, sand, water and ice, new beautis in aerodynamics and hydrodynamics for the General Aviation.

Special aircrafts for civil, rescue or military missions can be deviated from the modular system, all with STOL and long-range capabilities.

no corrosion, no leakage and unsinkable

the protected position of the power plant on top and above the centre of gravity

the quiet, comfortable large cabin with optimum visibility

The low float-wing, actis as sponson, surfboard and gangplank at the same time, ensuring no capsizing, no nose-over
