OUR FLEET
Since Dragonfly Aviation opened our doors, Diamond Aircraft have been at the heart of our flight training fleet. Over the years, we’ve built around that foundation, adding aircraft that allow us to offer an increasingly diverse range of training opportunities. Today, our 17 aircraft fleet can take you from your first flight through advanced ratings, endorsements, and specialty training.
Train in Diamond DA20s, DA40s, and our DA42, along with two Cirrus G6 SR20s, a CubCrafters Sport Cub, and a Game Aerospace GB1 GameBird. Together, these aircraft allow us to offer Private Pilot, Instrument, Commercial, and Multi-Engine training, as well as high performance and tailwheel endorsements, UPRT, spin, and aerobatic training.
Most of our aircraft are also available for rental to qualified pilots, with requirements varying by aircraft.
DIAMOND DA20-C1
Imagine taking your favorite sports car and adding wings, that’s the feeling you get when you strap into the two-seat Diamond DA20 and take to the sky. Sporty, sleek, and fun to fly, the DA20 combines responsive handling and impressive performance with the durability and economy that make it an excellent training aircraft.
Its composite construction, low-wing design, and distinctive T-tail give the DA20 a modern feel that sets it apart from many traditional training aircraft.

CIRRUS SR20-G6
With the Garmin Perspective+ flight deck, our Cirrus G6 SR20s combine modern technology, comfort, and performance in a capable training and cross-country aircraft. And when the Georgia temperatures start climbing, onboard air conditioning makes time on the ramp and in the cockpit considerably more comfortable.
Equipped with industry leading safety features, including the Cirrus Airframe Parachute System (CAPS), the SR20 is an excellent platform for advanced avionics training, high-performance endorsements, and transitioning into the Cirrus family of aircraft.
With a Cirrus Standardized Instructor Pilot (CSIP) on staff, Dragonfly Aviation offers official Cirrus SR20 Perspective+ Transition Training, as well as Cirrus Flight Reviews and Instrument Proficiency Checks (IPCs).

GAME AEROSPACE GB1 GAMEBIRD
The Game Aerospace GB1 GameBird brings an entirely different level of capability to our training fleet. Fully aerobatic and certified to +/- 10 Gs, the GB1 offers exceptional control and maneuverability, allowing us to safely explore areas of flight that simply aren’t possible in a typical training aircraft.
We use the GameBird for Upset Prevention and Recovery Training (UPRT), spin training, and aerobatic training, giving you the opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of aircraft control and expand your skills well beyond normal flight training.
