Aquila A 210 – High quality “made in Germany”
in: GA Buyer Europe, december 2007
The Aquila A 210 is an innovative all-composite VLA two-seater “made in Germany”. It is a comfortable tourer with long range and high cruising speed. Also, the Aquila A 210 is an ideal trainer and a comfortable workplace for flying instructors.
The Company: The plane is designed and manufactured by the German company AQUILA Aviation by Excellence AG, located at Schoenhagen airfield south of Berlin. Development of the Aquila A 210 started in 1995 and the successful maiden flight took place in 2000. Short delivery times can be chieved. The EASA-licensed company regularly carries out maintenance and overhaul jobs as a Part 145 maintenance facility for all composite aircraft types. [...]

Aquila A 210
in: FLYER, october 2007
This all-composite VLA two-seater is made in Germany and is a newcomer to the British scene - although it has already proved to be very popular in France with flying clubs. One is immediately struck by the unusual long-span wing which has compound sweep on the leading edge and neat winglets - and by the large cockpit canopy which provides fantastic vision. The Aquila is very robust with plenty of elbow room in the cockpit and a large rear compartment with a separate baggage door. In our Flyer air test we were impressed by the quality of finish and high standard equipment. There are stick controls and very efficient adjustable seats with inertia reel belt and the aircraft has electric trim and a variable pitch propeller driven by the Rotax engine. Handling is effortless and the Aquila hots along at 130 knots and an impressive 620 nm range which makes it a great touring machine. The flaps are not as effective as, say, those of a Cessna 152, so the aircraft may not be first choise for a short strip but the Aquila should stand up to the rough and tumble of club use and also makes a very effective private aircraft. Around 70 have been built to date and the British agent has several British customers for the aircraft.

VLA flight test - Aquila A 210 - Take 2
in: FLYER, summer 2007
[...] The Aquila A 210 is a proper aeroplane. It is beautifully finished, it is full of clever, practical design features and comes very well kitted-out even in standard form. It is roomy, comfortable and impressively fast without being compromised in any way for speed. Its considerable fuel tankage offers an impressive range, making it an ideal two-person tourer. At the same time, its robust construction, tradional instrumentation and systems, general ease of operation and super, safe handling would make it a good trainer - although some instructors are bound to argue that the exellent control harmony and lack of trim change with flap deployment robs it of useful teaching foibles.
