Exciting Announcement! Posted on 2 Apr 07:37

Desert Aircraft has acquired the Slimline Products brand, design rights, and fabrication technologies. All production will soon take place at our facility in Tucson, AZ. While initial focus will be on mufflers for Desert Aircraft engines, a variety of Slimline products will be offered in the near future. We will make the transition as smooth and timely as possible. As always, thank you for supporting Desert Aircraft.

2020 Tucson Aerobatic Shootout Posted on 31 Mar 16:19

  As Covid-19 continues to spread, we have made the decision to cancel the 2020 Tucson Aerobatic Shootout. Normally cancelling the Shootout would be a very difficult decision, but in light of the massive and ongoing impact of the virus, it is actually easy to be realistic and pro-active.    

    Unlike a casual fly-in, a top tier international competition like the Shootout takes a huge amount of preparation from everyone involved. The ongoing effects of the pandemic greatly inhibit those efforts. While we are sad we won’t be hosting all of our friends in Tucson this fall, we look forward to seeing everyone again in 2021.

DA Shop Update Posted on 27 Mar 11:35

For the time being, DA is still open. Like everyone else, we are taking the situation day by day. The shop is currently working on a more limited schedule, but business is still flowing. At the moment, the website is still the best way to purchase anything, and email is the best way to reach us: info@desertaircraft.com
 
Shipping for orders may be delayed, but they will still go out as long as the shipping providers are running.
 
Repairs are also still going, but we are not giving any estimated turnaround times at this time; expect some delays, and we will get to them as the schedule permits.
 
We thank everyone for your understanding as we work through this situation.
