Unmatched security.
The DA40 tops the list of civil aviation aircraft with the lowest accident rate (Source: Aviation Consumer). This is because Diamond strives to provide complete safety for the crew in flight, both active and passive.
Active safety is understood as stable controllability at low speeds, shortened takeoff and landing, excellent visibility and modern avionics.
Passive safety includes increased risk mitigation measures.
For example, aircraft fuel tanks are made of aluminum and protected by double spars made of composite material based on carbon fibers.
This avoids ignition in the event of an impact.
The creation of all aircraft components that can pose a threat to the health and life of the crew is carried out based on increased safety requirements.
Benefits
High strength and light weight.
Radio communication and navigation. In addition to all the necessary flight instruments, the aircraft is equipped with radio communications and navigation equipment - an indispensable assistant in poor visibility conditions.
The aircraft's design is suitable for uneven terrain. The DA40 TundraStar is equipped with a reinforced chassis: oversized wheels, turbulators (vortex generator) and retractable flaps.
The new tricycle landing gear is able to withstand adverse stress landing conditions, potholes and surface irregularities.
Diesel engine AE300 can operate on various types of fuel, from JetA-1 to TC-1 and RT.
