Aviad, founded by Francesco Di Martino in February 2007, is a company dedicated to the construction and design of aeronautical components, landing gear retraction systems, and aeronautical welding.

 

Francesco Di Martino's passion for flight and his expertise in mechanical engineering and automation have driven the company's success and innovation.

Hailing from Turin, Italy, Francesco Di Martino has devoted his life to studying and developing aeronautical solutions. Flying in paragliders, paramotors, and 3-axis airplanes since 2000, he has conducted tests and trials on his own aircraft, accumulating valuable experience in the aeronautical field. His specialization in TIG welding, mechanics, and structural design in CAD has led to outstanding designs of sports planes and precise components.

 

Aviad, located in Spain near the French border, is situated in the Villadamat airfield in the province of Girona, just a few kilometers from Barcelona. Specialized in manufacturing high-precision mechanical components such as landing gear, shock absorbers, engine mounts, and TIG welding systems, Aviad also offers assembly kits and excels in the construction of light aircraft. The company boasts expertise in aircraft structure design and specialized aeronautical engineering for light aircraft

 

Aviad's most notable achievement is the Zigolo MG12 aircraft, which has been instrumental in the modern revival of light aircraft.

Thanks to updated engineering and the use of new engines, the Zigolo MG12 has become a benchmark in the SSDR Class120 category in Europe and complies with FAR103 regulations in the United States.

Its performance and design have made it a good choice in the market. In 2021, Aviad introduced the TrueLite aircraft, a milestone in its category.

This aircraft stands out for its folding wing system and fully metallic construction, making it a unique and highly transportable option in its weight class.

Aviad has demonstrated adaptability and growth with its new strategic location in Spain, from where it produces and distributes its products internationally. With a clear vision and a passionate team, Aviad continues to soar, taking flight and the passion for aviation to new heights worldwide.
