Loehle Aircraft Corp. manufactures aircraft kits and a complete aircraft paint line for all types of aircraft (metal, composite and fabric covered). This company has manufactured aircraft kits for 29 years (as of Feb. 2006) and specializes in light sport aircraft, ultralights, experimental aircraft--especially 3/4 scale replicas of warbirds from WWI and WWII. They manufacture replicas of the P-51 Mustang, P-40 Flying Tiger (Warhawk), Spitfire, Spad XIII, Fokker D-VII, SE5a and an FW-190/ME109 look alike. They also manufacture a simple to build, fun to fly classic called the Sport Parasol. All kits come with pre-cut, numbered parts for ease of assembly, much like a model airplane but just bigger parts.

Loehle Aero Coatings provides the most advanced painting system on the aircraft market, known for an extreme high gloss, wet-look finish. This system requires fewer coats and is easier to apply than older processes on the market, and the clear coat provides a truly clear protective barrier for decorative decals. The system is designed to provide superior UV protection and flexibility. Loehle Aero Coatings is used on general aviation aircraft, ultralights, light sport aircraft, experimental aircraft, helicopters, warbirds, as well as military, government and aerospace applications. It is also available in semi-gloss and flat finishes. More information can be found at loehle.com.
