The joy of flying means many things — and a DA40 can define
them all. Enjoy the unparalleled visibility out of the large canopy,
without any framing to block your view. Feel the responsiveness
of the flight controls as you maneuver and enjoy the plane's
benign slow-flight behavior and easy landing characteristics.
The DA40 Diamond Star gives you and your passengers the best way to experience the sheer joy of flying. These aircraft are the most cost effective and fuel efficient in their class, with the best safety record around. Like earlier models, the DA40 provide incredible speed, visibility and comfort. Both the DA40 XLS and CS are built upon the outstanding features which made the DA40-180 and XL the most popular aircraft in the Diamond family. Impress yourself and your passengers by taking them places they've never been, behind the industry-leading G1000 glass cockpit — now improved with WAAS-enabled GPS and standard Garmin SafeTaxi and FlightCharts, and upgradeable with many options, including the GFC700 digital autopilot.
