Diamond Aircraft is honored to have received the 2020 Aerokurier Innovation Award for our DA50 RG, as the best new aircraft.

The Aerokurier Innovation Award is a coveted award for all general aviation manufacturers where readers vote for the best products in different categories.

The DA50 RG featuring retractable gear and the 300 hp Continental CD-300 jet fuel engine was supposed to be unveiled at this year AERO Friedrichshafen that was canceled due to the developments regarding the spread of coronavirus COVID-19.

The wellbeing and safety of our customers, partners and employees remain our top priority and we are complying with the regulations issued by the Austrian Government, the European Parliament and the World Health Organization (WHO). Diamond Aircraft will publish further information on the DA50 RG as soon as possible.
