PlaneFox tracks 3 G1 Aviation G1 aircraft for sale and re-reads every one of them from the broker and dealer sites it watches, so the figures below move when the market moves. Every number on this page is measured from those live listings, not taken from a published price guide.
A G1 Aviation G1 flies about 324 nm, roughly 600 km, which is about 3 h 51 min in still air at typical cruise.
A G1 Aviation G1 costs about EUR 1,052 a month to run, or about EUR 129 for every flight hour when it is flown 150 hours a year.
The G1 Aviation G1 is a French two-seat light sport and microlight aircraft from G1 Aviation, developed in the late 2000s and first flown around 2009. It is a high-wing, strut-braced utility design aimed at short-field private flying, touring and recreational operations. The aircraft matters in the used market because it combines conventional all-metal construction with STOL-oriented handling, large tires or optional floats on some examples, and operating costs typical of Rotax-powered light aircraft.
Typical G1 Aviation G1 performance depends on national weight category, propeller choice and installed equipment. Published figures for Rotax 912 ULS equipped aircraft include a cruise speed of about 100 knots, a maximum speed around 116 knots, and a range of roughly 600 nautical miles with standard fuel. Service ceiling is commonly quoted at about 13,000 feet. The usual powerplant is the 100 hp Rotax 912 ULS, although individual aircraft may have different Rotax installations depending on certification category and local approval. Useful load should be checked aircraft by aircraft, since empty weight and legal maximum takeoff weight vary by registration regime.
The G1 Aviation G1 has a side-by-side two-seat cabin with high-wing visibility, large doors and a simple utility layout. It is not normally associated with integrated Garmin Perspective or G1000 avionics. Used examples are more likely to have conventional analog instruments, Dynon or MGL electronic flight displays, Garmin portable GPS units, 8.33 kHz radios, Mode S transponders and basic engine monitoring. Buyers should review the actual panel installation, documentation and local compliance, especially if night, controlled-airspace or cross-border use is intended.
On the used market, the G1 Aviation G1 is positioned as a practical STOL-capable microlight or light sport aircraft rather than a fast cross-country type. Important checks include Rotax engine hours and maintenance history, propeller condition, landing gear and brake wear, corrosion protection, fuel system condition, fabric or fairing damage where fitted, and evidence of hard short-field use. Common variations include different landing gear setups, tundra tires, amphibious or float-equipped aircraft, and upgraded glass-panel avionics. Value is driven strongly by registration category, equipment, empty weight, engine time, and the quality of builder or factory documentation.
