Editor’s Note: This news release came across our (virtual) desks today and we feel it’s of interest to provide this update now. However, our man Dan Johnson has arranged to speak with current CEO Alex Rolinski in the next few days to get more detail on these changes and what to look for from Aero Adventure in the near future.
Change is coming to Aero Adventure, maker of the Aventura amphibs. According to the company, “this month, our company will be under…new leadership. With a highly experienced and respected professional team, the company is about to enter a new era of innovation and expansion.”
The company has already been making progress. “Since the beginning of 2022, we have focused on solidifying and accelerating our production process, our new team has taken us to the next level. We changed the production process, adding state-of-the-art CNC equipment. Today, we have a production capacity of 18 kits per year and plan to expand to 24 kits by 2025.”
Modifications to the Aventura are on the way as well. “We will soon be launching updates such as: a new wing for the AVENTURA SLSA version, with ribs, a fiberglass leading edge, and complete covering,” the company says. “This will increase aerodynamic efficiency by reducing drag. The tail will also undergo significant modifications, as well as the windshield!”
Aero Adventure has also “expanded our operations around the world, with representatives in Europe (Poland), Asia/Oceania (Australia), and South America (Brazil).”

Call it what it is, he hasn’t been providing product for customers for years with horrible customer service, people are missing parts and can’t build their planes and someone is bailing him out.l and hopefully does even 1/10 of the job. Enough people market it tom keep it going while more people get screwed.

It’s been a challenge to improve aspects of the business while Alex was trying to look after so much by himself. Alex now has all of the help he needs, from the right people in the right places, to help everyone out that needs it.
This is a whole new beginning for Aero Adventure – it’s now properly resourced with the production facilities, talent and attitude to make sure nobody else experiences the same difficulties that you have been through.
The new management team is committed to looking after ALL LEGACY CLIENTS (including you and I) and moving forward with a first-class customer ownership experience.
Things have changed. If you have not already been contacted by the new managers to see how you’re going, then please e-mail info@airtech.tech and I assure you – your issues will be worked through with as much haste as humanly possible.

Hi Dan – hopefully this makes them more responsive! The Paradise P1 I bought with the hand controls has been down with engine issues 3 months after we got it to California! I’ve spent over $15,000 trying to get it fixed, and still not there. I have even had an engine out landing already. I hope this expansion means they can actually help maintain and fix what they sell.
Also my advice to anyone looking at an LSA – stay away from Rotax if you can! No one really knows what they are doing.

May I ask what the root cause of failure was with your 100hp Rotax? It would be helpful to know what other Pilots are experiencing. Thank you

I have a Rotax 912ULS powered aircraft on order. They engine seems to be very popular and powers many airplanes. What was your particular issue and with whom did you contract to repair your engine. I would like to avoid and similar problem if I can.
Thanks,
Martin Bangert says
What is the engine doing? What engine do you have?
