The Icon A5 is a two-seat, spin-resistant amphibious light sport aircraft built in California by Icon Aircraft. It fuses aeronautical engineering with world-class industrial design to make personal flight feel closer to riding a jet ski than piloting a plane. The Vision Icon Aircraft was founded around a specific mission: accelerate the democratization of personal aircraft and 3D mobility, and build consumer-friendly, safe, technologically advanced planes that make flying more accessible. The Icon A5 is the first product of that mission, a Light Sport Aircraft designed to be as intuitive and desirable as a premium sportscar. The Vision Realized The A5 is an amphibious sport plane with folding wings, engineered to take off and land from water as easily as from a runway. It won prestigious industrial design awards for its automotive-inspired cockpit, angle-of-attack instrument, and integrated seat harness system. Above all, it is the world's first production aircraft with a spin-resistant airframe, one of the safest small aircraft ever certified. In the Air Power comes from a 100 hp Rotax 912 pusher engine, giving a maximum speed of 95 KCAS (109 mph, 176 kph) and a range of 427 nautical miles with a 45-minute reserve. Predictable flying characteristics, low stall speed, and planing wingtips make water operations approachable. Safety is layered: the Icon Spin-Resistant Airframe (SRA), the Icon Angle of Attack indicator (AoA), and the Icon Parachute System (IPS) that can lower the entire aircraft under canopy in an emergency. Cockpit width is 46 in (116.8 cm), roomy enough for two adults and a small bag.
