Diamond Aircraft concluded a successful week at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2026, where it showcased a comprehensive flight-training and private aviation lineup comprising the DA62, DA50 RG, DA42-VI, DA40 NG and DA40 XLT. During the show, Diamond Aircraft celebrated the delivery of a DA40 XLT to Middle Tennessee State University and a DA42-VI to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.

The displayed DA40 NG, part of SkyWarrior Flight Training’s previously announced 18-aircraft order, will be delivered to the school following AirVenture. Together, these aircraft highlight Diamond’s continued momentum among leading university and professional flight-training organizations. AirVenture also marked a new private aviation sale for Diamond Aircraft. Premier Aircraft Sales, an authorized Diamond Aircraft dealer in the United States, sold a DA62 during the show, with the purchase agreement signed at the Diamond Aircraft exhibit.

Bin Chen, Chairman of Diamond Aircraft Group commented: “These aircraft represent strong, long-term partnerships with some of the world’s leading aviation training organizations. We are proud to support our customers with efficient, advanced single- and multi-engine aircraft for the training of future professional pilots.”

Diamond Aircraft’s Chairman and members of the company’s global group leadership joined the North American team at AirVenture for meetings with customers, partners and industry organizations, reinforcing the strategic importance of the North American market.

Nearly 150 Diamond Flying Club members—including owners, pilots, flight-school representatives, partners and aviation enthusiasts—attended the second annual DFC Oshkosh Diamond Night. The event brought the Diamond community together to share their passion for aviation and celebrate the continued growth of the global club.

Diamond Aircraft also sponsored EAA KidVenture, supporting hands-on activities and educational experiences designed to inspire the next generation of pilots, engineers and aviation enthusiasts. Throughout the week, visitors explored new Diamond-branded merchandise at the Diamond Pilot Shop, including special-edition items designed for Oshkosh 2026.
