Evektor VUT-100 Cobra
The Evektor VUT100 Cobra is a Czech utility aircraft with a high wing, large cabin doors, and a robust fixed undercarriage. It was designed for training, touring, and aerial work from smaller airfields, combining light-aircraft economy with practical load-carrying ability. The Cobra’s high wing and simple layout distinguish it from Evektor’s low-wing SportStar family. Its small production run makes it a rare sight outside Central European general aviation.
