The Extra EA-300, a revolutionary unlimited-class aerobatic aircraft, transformed competitive aerobatic flying when it first flew on May 6, 1988. Designed by German aerobatic pilot and engineer Walter Extra, it is a single-engine, low-wing monoplane that seats two occupants in tandem configuration. With its symmetrical airfoil wings spanning 26 feet and carbon fiber composite construction, the EA-300 can withstand ±10 G forces and achieve roll rates of 400 degrees per second. Built by Extra Flugzeugbau of Germany, it established new standards for production aerobatic aircraft performance.
