Where can I find a A5 for sale?

Every A5 PlaneFox can see is on this page — 13 of them, gathered from the broker and dealer sites it re-reads continuously. Most are listed in Italy (1). Each listing links straight through to the seller, so a A5 in another country is worth considering rather than filtering out.

What should I check when buying a used A5?

On a used A5, check airframe hours, engine time since overhaul, avionics generation and damage history before anything else. PlaneFox recommends a pre-purchase inspection by an EASA Part-145 shop that knows the type, which typically costs EUR 1,500 to EUR 3,500. Under 1,500 airframe hours is low-time and above 3,500 means budgeting for higher maintenance; most piston engines run a 2,000-hour TBO, so past 1,500 to 1,700 hours since overhaul expect the overhaul within one to three years at EUR 25,000 to EUR 45,000. Read the full logbook history for prop strikes, gear-up landings and structural repair, and confirm ADs and SBs are complied with.

About the ICON Aircraft A5

Aircraft overview

The ICON Aircraft A5 is a two seat amphibious light sport aircraft developed by ICON Aircraft in California. The prototype first flew in 2008, with customer deliveries beginning in 2015. It is aimed at recreational flying from both land and water, combining retractable landing gear, a boat like hull and folding wings for storage or trailering. Its significance in the used aircraft market comes from its unusual mix of amphibious capability, light sport certification and design features focused on low speed handling, including a spin resistant airframe.

Performance & specifications

The ICON Aircraft A5 is powered by a 100 hp Rotax 912 iS fuel injected engine driving a pusher propeller. Typical published figures include a maximum cruise speed of about 95 knots, with practical cruise often planned lower depending on loading, water operations and conditions. Published range is about 427 nautical miles. Useful load is commonly listed at about 430 lb, which is an important planning factor because the aircraft has two seats, fuel and baggage capacity to balance. The service ceiling is 10,000 feet. As an amphibian, takeoff distance, climb and payload margins should be reviewed carefully for the intended mix of runway, lake and coastal use.

Cabin & avionics

The cabin seats two side by side and has a sports car style layout, with removable side windows and good outward visibility. The cockpit is compact, so buyer fit and comfort are worth checking in person, especially for longer flights. A prominent angle of attack indicator is central to the A5 operating concept. Avionics vary by year and equipment package, but typical aircraft use Garmin based portable or panel mounted displays, VHF communication, transponder and ADS-B equipment where installed or upgraded. Later examples may have more integrated glass cockpit presentations than early production aircraft.

Buying & value

Prospective buyers should verify hull condition, corrosion exposure, water operation history, landing gear function, wing fold condition, service bulletin compliance, parachute system status and Rotax engine maintenance records. Amphibious aircraft benefit from especially careful inspection of bilge areas, seals, control runs and any evidence of hard water landings. Common value drivers include production year, avionics updates, paint and interior condition, trailer availability, remaining parachute life and documented factory support. On PlaneFox, current ICON Aircraft A5 asking prices average about EUR 305,000, with listings ranging from EUR 274,000 to EUR 430,000, positioning the model as a specialized recreational amphibian rather than a conventional trainer or cross country aircraft.
