The EPSILON-TB 30, produced by the French company AEROSPATIALE, was conceived to serve the elementary piloting training and to allow pilots to go further beyond the basic or intermediate phase. It is a two-seat aircraft, in tandem, short low-wing with a retractable tricycle landing gear. The 6 horizontal-cylinder and automatic-injection engine, possesses a feeding and lubrication device for inverted flight and powers a constant speed propeller. The instrument panel configuration, together with the robustness of its cell, makes it possible for the plane to withstand from +6.76 to -3.35 Gs and the sensitivity of its controls, confer this aircraft characteristics similar to those of a small conventional fighter.
