vision

TO SHARE OUR PASSION FOR CREATING UNIQUE AIRCRAFT WITH THE WORLD.

MISSION

WE ARE THE LEADER IN BUILDING HANDCRAFTED AIRPLANES WHICH PROVIDE THE ULTIMATE SENSE OF ADVENTURE.

YES ATTITUDE   -   EXCELLENCE   -   INNOVATION

It takes a large, dedicated team of experienced craftsmen at the WACO factory in Battle Creek, Michigan, to expertly employ our handcrafted techniques, and we’ve been doing it since 1983.

​

WACO Aircraft Corporation currently produces two biplanes;  the WACO YMF-5 and the Great Lakes 2T-1A-2. These biplanes are produced by hand - based on original techniques from the 1920's and 1930's. Although they may appear to be original aircraft, these flying machines are brand new and feature modern technology for improved flying characteristics and safety. 

European Sales & Service

WACO Aircraft Europe GmbH was formed in 2021 to strengthen WACO's European presence.

Demonstration flights for interested European 

parties can now be held in a new production YMF-5 Super or Great Lakes at the St. Gallen Altenrhein airfield in Switzerland. 

​

To eliminate the long journey to Michigan, a new aircraft showroom will also be available for European clients to select their personalized options and finishes.

A service facility was also added in 2021 for European owners to receive factory-certified maintenance & repairs.
