Remos Aircraft rolls out GXeLITE

After successfully introducing a new model at AirVenture 2011, REMOS Aircraft has rolled out another configuration of the GX series: the GXeLITE. With a base price of $133,924, the GXeLITE is configured for day/VFR only.

Providing the same high level of precision engineering along with the identical performance and flight handling characteristics as the other GX models, the eLITE offers a simplified instrument panel that is designed for basic VFR flight. REMOS has focused on the Sport Pilot with the eLITE, responding to day trips and weekend flying by people who are in it for the fun and adventure instead of the technology of avionics. It has what people look for in a J-3 Cub, but the handling is better, the speed is faster and the technology of the airframe and powerplant are far more advanced.

"We've essentially removed a lot of the bells and whistles that people don't need for recreational flight," said Sue Parker, U.S. Sales & Marketing Manager for REMOS. "If people decide they want to upgrade later, there is an extensive list of options they can add on if they feel it will enhance their flying experiences. This is the most economical version of a REMOS, but we've done nothing to compromise the precision or performance that made the company a leader in the industry."
