In a move that manufacturer Evektor is supportive of, sales and support of the popular Evektor Eurostar and associated models have been passed by Cosmik Aviation to a newly formed company – Light Sport Aviation (LSA).

A ‘slow-down’, pending retirement by MD Nigel Beale has forced the family businesses of Skydrive and Cosmik Aviation, run by Nigel’s son Conrad, to rethink their strategy for the future and the decision has been taken to pass the Cosmik Aviation side of the business to LSA. 

LSA (www.lightsportaviation.org.uk ) has been established by Steve Pike and Edmund Otun and will be taking over the Cosmik business with immediate effect. They are based at Wycombe Air Park, where they already run a flying school using Eurostar Aircraft (www.lightsportflying.co.uk.).

LSA also plans to continue production of the popular teamEurostar factory built microlight, but there will be a delay of a few months while its CAA approval is processed.

Owners are asked to contact LSA for all spare parts orders and product support for existing aircraft. It is expected to take a little while to complete the changeover of all the stock and to establish a full service from Wycombe but the Beale family will be helping LSA over the next year or so to ease the process.

Meanwhile Nigel Beale and family will be continuing with their prime business, Skydrive, the UK Rotax distributor, and are available to help with any engine related queries or problems too.

 

The first Evektor aircraft presentation by Light Sport Aviation will be launched at the Microlight Trade Fair in Popham on May 4th & 5th, followed by  AeroExpo at Sywell on May 31st – June 2nd.

 

The staff at Cosmik would like to thank all their customers for their support and business in the past; they have supplied 180 aircraft over the 13 years they have been UK agents.
