Hey, I know my airplane is uber safe, but don't take my word for it - review the accident reports at the NTSB Aviation Accident Report site.

The ONLY fatal accidents since the airplane was imported into the US in 2005, as of March 30, 2026 were as follows.:
1) September 15, 2007: A Stall-Spin accident in Erie Colorado at 8,000 feet Density Altitude with an OVERLOADED airplane.
2) March 5, 2010: A pilot flew into IMC (Instrument Meteorogical Conditions) - INSTRUMENT - like, CLOUDS. He wasn't instrument rated and hit the ground.
3) May 29, 2010: Canopy opened on takeoff due to improper latching. The airplane flies just fine with the canopy open, but this pilot decided he had to close it and wasn't paying attention to where he was going. He hit a barn.
4) July 1, 2020: A 78-year-old pilot had a stroke on approach to an airport.
The Evektor SportStar is a very safe airplane - perhaps the safest airplane in the world.
