Our Story

From a Composite Workshop in Hungary
to an Airplane Company

Volozen didn’t start with a pitch deck or a Series A. It started with a team of composite engineers who’d spent years pushing the limits of carbon-fiber manufacturing — and a pilot who’d spent years running a flight school and watching legacy airframes get older, heavier, and more expensive to maintain.

A Different Way to Build an Airplane

Most GA Airframes on the Market Were Designed Decades Ago

Riveted aluminum skins. Hydraulic systems drawn up before their pilots were born. Avionics bolted onto panels that were never meant to hold them. The general aviation market runs on legacy designs — and the prices reflect it.

Volozen is what happens when you start from a clean sheet with modern composites, modern manufacturing, and modern electronics — and refuse to ship anything that wouldn’t earn its place today.

Composites Expertise Turned Toward Aviation

The Volozen engineering team brings deep experience in carbon-fiber manufacturing — a world where every gram matters, every cycle gets logged, and every component has to survive a punishing test schedule. That mindset carried straight into the 4xx / 2xx airframe family.

The complete wing weighs 115 kg with ailerons, flaps, and all the landing-gear support structure. The 60-liter composite fuel tanks weigh 3.8 kg each and have been pressure-tested to twice the FAR Part 23 burst requirement. No welds, no rivets, no fatigue paths. Multi-axial carbon fiber — not woven — laid up via resin infusion for consistent laminate quality throughout.

In-House Electronics

Every Box. Every Connector. Every Line of Firmware.

Fuel-valve modules, dimmer-controlled cockpit lighting, dual-flash LED strobes, wing electronics boxes rated IP65 with keyed connectors — you physically cannot plug the wrong harness into the wrong module. Every line-replaceable unit is designed and built in-house.

Custom PCBs. Modular, plug-in architecture. The goal: any A&P mechanic, anywhere in the world, can swap a module in minutes with no special training. A 3.3 kW alternator provides the electrical backbone.

Composite Project Kft

Manufacturing happens at Composite Project Kft in Balloszoeg, Hungary — a facility purpose-built for resin infusion, foam-core CNC milling, and anodized 7075-T6 aluminum sub-assemblies. Currently occupying 15,000 square feet and actively looking for 30,000 to keep up with production demand.

Parts for the next three aircraft are already being manufactured alongside the prototype build. A DAR (Designated Airworthiness Representative) has been engaged for the airworthiness certification process under FAR Part 23.

Two Families. One Airframe.

One composite platform, two families. The 4xx four-seat family and the 2xx two-seat family share wings, fuselage construction, landing gear, fuel systems, doors, and electronics. One spares inventory. One mechanic skillset. Two- and four-seat airplanes built for different missions from a single engineering foundation.
