Fuji FA-200 Aero Subaru

fufa200

Fuji Heavy Industries builds a two-seat aerobatic light trainer, the FA-200 Aero Subaru, of which over 250 have been sold in Japan and in Europe. Expensive to produce because of its heavy reliance on handwork and imported hardware, and rather homely in appearance, the Fuji has not been as great a success, but it has not been a failure.

The FA-200-160 is a basic version with a Lycoming O-320-D2A engine and certified as a two-seater (aerobatic category) and three-seater (utility) or four-seater.

The FA-200-180 was a developed version certificated as a two-seater (aerobatic category) and four-seater (utility and normal categories).
