Hirth Engines

Hirth engines and parts are available through AffordaplaneStore.com

Hirth has a long history of producing lightweight, purpose-built engines for aircraft, and we believe they remain an excellent option for builders looking for a reliable powerplant in the ultralight and experimental aviation community.

We also recognize that the cost of aircraft engines has become a significant concern for many builders. International shipping, tariffs, currency fluctuations, and the broader economic environment have all contributed to substantial increases in the cost of bringing engines and parts into the United States.

We know that matters to the Affordaplane community. Affordability has always been an important part of the Affordaplane philosophy, and we don’t take that lightly.

While we can’t control the costs imposed by international freight, tariffs, or the manufacturers themselves, we can control how we serve our customers. Our goal is to provide clear pricing, accurate availability information, and a straightforward way for U.S. builders to obtain Hirth engines and parts without having to navigate international purchasing on their own.

We will continue to monitor pricing and availability closely and will make updates as conditions change. We will also be transparent about costs and delivery expectations before an order is placed.

For builders considering a Hirth engine, we encourage you to contact us with questions about engine selection, installation, parts, pricing, and availability. We’re here to help you determine whether a Hirth is the right choice for your particular project.

Our goal isn’t simply to sell an engine. It’s to help builders make informed decisions about their powerplant and ultimately get their Affordaplanes built, flying, and supported for years to come.
