Today’s Top Pick is a 2022 Risen 915SV.

Fans of fast experimental aircraft have gazed longingly at the Risen 915SV, or Super Veloce, ever since it began appearing at aviation trade shows over a decade ago. Developed by Alberto Porto of Porto Aviation, the ultra-sleek, V-tail two-seater has set several speed records and is known for cruising reliably at 200 ktas. The aircraft’s speed combined with the relatively low fuel burn of its Rotax engine make it an attractive proposition for two people seeking rapid cross-country transport.

While the 915SV’s high speed and complex features, including retractable gear and constant-speed prop, have long disqualified it from operating in the light sport category, that is expected to change as MOSAIC rules continue to roll out later this year.

While the 915SV operates today as an experimental aircraft, it is loaded with features comparable to certified models and is designed to carry a pilot and passenger comfortably and quickly over significant distances. It is a serious traveling machine.
