Interesting facts about the Aeros AC-21
✈ The Aeros AC-21 is a single seat powered sailplane designed in Ukraine for efficient soaring with self-launch capability.
✈ The design evolved from the AL-12 project developed by Aeros and Aerola during 2000 to 2005 before Aeros advanced it as the AC-21.
✈ Structure uses carbon and glass fiber composites to reduce weight and increase strength for sailplane loading.
✈ Typical power is a Hirth F33 two stroke engine rated at 28 hp that supports self-launch and climb.
✈ Certified load factors target +5.3 to −2.65 g for powered sailplane standards, giving a healthy structural margin.
✈ Leading edge design and planform aim for very low sink rates to stay airborne in microlift conditions.
✈ Clubs use the AC-21 for economical soaring, pilot development and cross-country training with minimal ground support.
✈ The cockpit suits a wide pilot weight range and includes provisions for a ballistic rescue system on many builds.

FAQs About the Aeros AC-21
How much does an Aeros AC-21 cost?
In 2024 to 2025, completed and airworthy examples typically ranged from the mid five figures to the low six figures in US Dollars. Pricing depends on airframe hours, engine time since overhaul, avionics, trailer, rescue system fit and documentation.
What pilot size and weight does the AC-21 accommodate?
Typical pilot weight range spans about 60 kg to 110 kg. Always confirm the exact allowable range and current weight and balance for the specific aircraft before flight.
What performance can buyers expect in weak lift?
The AC-21’s minimum sink rate is about 0.6 m/s and the design turns tightly at low speeds. Pilots can exploit microlift and small thermals that defeat many heavier motor gliders.
Which inspections should I prioritise in a pre-buy?
Review composite structure condition, control surface hinges, wing attachment points, fuel and cooling systems, engine hours, propeller condition, rescue system service dates and compliance with manufacturer service information.
Is the AC-21 trailerable and practical for club use?
Yes. Owners commonly store and transport the AC-21 in a purpose trailer. Low empty weight and composite wings ease rigging with trained helpers, which suits club operations and private soaring.
