In 2011, Aeropro began developing the first pre-production Vision. In the development, we used more than 30 years of experience in the production of aircraft. The project involved prominent design engineers, aerodynamicists, a team of designers and technologists. The aim was to design an aircraft with a timeless design, with excellent flight and performance characteristics.
In 2012, the first EuroFOX-VISION 01 verification aircraft was manufactured (fuselage from the original EuroFox + composite wing + composite tail surfaces), which has a flight time of 670 hours.
The final flight characteristics of the project were verified on the VISION 02 aircraft. He obtained a certificate of airworthiness like EXPERIMENTAL CS-LSA category. At present, the development of the VISION is completed. All technological molds and frame jig for it‘s production are produced.
The VISION aircraft is a two-seater aircraft in the Light Sport Aircraft category designed up to a maximum take-off weight of 600 kg. This aircraft has been designed for the category according to the CS-LSA building code for European certification and ASTM F2245 for certification in the USA.

Design
VISION is an high wing aircraft designed with strut. Wing is an all-composite sandwich construction with carbon beams. It is made in negative molds, which ensures the uniqueness and accuracy of repeated production with a very high quality surface. The wings have integrated fuel tanks with a total capacity of 130 liters, which ensures a flight endurance of 9.5 hours and a range of approximately 1,800 km.
The front of the fuselage, up to the main bulkhead, is steel tubes cage. From the main partition, it continues as composite shell. The rod construction increases the passive safety of the aircraft crew. The mentioned construction of the fuselage guarantees low weight and at the same time high strength and rigidity. Vision has a unique cross section of the fuselage.
The tail surfaces are also made from composite sandwich construction with the possibility of removing the horizontal stabilizer. This version of the aircraft has a three-point landing gear with a front wheel. The suspension of the main undercarriage is ensured by the flexibility of the composite legs. The front leg is attached to the fire wall of the aircraft and is sprung by a rubber damper, which is attached to the engine mount. The Front wheel is protected against side vibrations by a hydraulic anti-shimmy damper. The wheels of the undercarriage are covered with aerodynamic covers. The pedal braking system provides independent braking of each wheel separately, which ensures excellent controllability of the aircraft when rolling and parking.
