The DA40 XLT has been the best-selling Diamond Aircraft model (by volume) over the company’s 40 year history. Powered by the 180HP Lycoming IO-360 piston engine, the DA40 XLT has proven itself to be a reliable training aircraft with superb safety and rugged dependability. The all-composite DA40 provides a platform which is easily maintained and repairable, corrosion resistant with no life limit restrictions on the airframe components and a leading choice for flight training academies.
