Specifications | Description | Construction Data | Construction Detail Photos | Photo

The Super Solution 2000 is a single engine two-place, high-wing, strut-braced ultralight airplane using aluminum tubing, cromoly 4130 steel tubing, fiberglass enclosure, and fiberglass landing gear. Built by VSTOL Aircraft Corp., its high-lift, double-surface airfoil made of aluminum tubes with dope and fabric cover.

The Super Solution 2000 up until the year 2000 was a Tail wheel aircraft all SS2000 ordered from now on will be tricycle gear.

The Super Solution 2000 uses the wing from VSTOL Aircraft's SST2000 PAIRadigm -- a unique high-lift double-surface wing with slats, slotted ailerons, and flaps. This results in slower stall speeds, and shorter takeoff and landing rolls for additional safety.

Standard equipment include a set of controls for the rear seat, an instrument panel, an enclosure with windshield, and a tested agricultural spraying system computer engine monitoring system.

Options include extra fuel tanks and a GPS for the spray system.
