The Company
The company was born from the vision of entrepreneurs passionate about innovation in the aeronautical industry. On one side, Commander Marinho, with 22 years of experience in aviation; on the other, Aeronautical Engineer Luciano Castro, with 23 years of experience in the field. With a team of engineers and technicians with more than half a century of experience, it was possible to create FITS Aero (Freedom In The Sky) in 2020, choosing the city of Goiânia, Goiás, as its headquarters, the heart of our country.
Unit 02
FITS Aero has been synonymous with excellence and commitment to flight safety, at the forefront of technology at all stages of development and production.
In 2021, the company was invited to participate in a study group with ANAC - National Civil Aviation Agency to expand the limitations of the ALE - Special Light Sport Aircraft (or S-LSA) category in Brazil, a study that is being used by the Federal Aviation Administration - FAA (USA). The result of this work led to the creation of the F2, the company's first prototype, the result of more than 20,000 technical hours, a true Brazilian aerospace masterpiece. FITS Aero became a pioneer by designing the first 3-seater S-LSA aircraft within the new limitations established.
