The Ultimate in Low Level Flying
We're excited to introduce the debut of
the Super Aviator, a one-of-a-kind two-seat
submersible designed to "fly" underwater, much the way a
fixed wing aircraft would. The Super Aviator features the
latest in underwater technology and allows you to witness the
wonders of the ocean without getting wet.

IN THE NEWS
It's all plane sailing: The Super Aviator sub in action
- The Daily Mail, November 7, 2009. "The Super
Aviator is the personal sub designed like an aeroplane...
and with views like this, you won't need an in-flight movie!"
Submarines
for Everyone! - Wired, July 22, 2009. An great
article that summarizes the development of the "persub"
(personal submersible) including our Super Aviator.

The Aviator occasionally takes time out from
her work with film crews and undersea explorers so her owners, Sub
Aviator Systems, LLC, can train a new crop of underwater pilots.
A limited number of spots are then available in their
SAS Flight School. An introductory piloting course that includes
initial land training and a single "sea exploration"
flight is also being offered.

Underwater flight becomes a reality for the
first time
Imagine, if you will...traveling
back in time to the year 1903. Orville Wright has invited you
to be the co-pilot on one of the world's very first airplane
flights. If your response to Orville would have been a roaring
"let's go!", this adventure is for you.
Be among the first in the world to experience a
totally new dimension of flight…nderwater. Hundreds have
traveled to space. Few have experienced the incredible thrill
of a flight in the Super Aviator.
The Super Aviator - a Unique Hydrobatic Submersible
Craft
The
Super Aviator is a new class of hydrobatic submersible
craft, built to fully explore underwater flight. Think of conventional
submersibles as slow, bulky, stiff underwater balloons, and the
Super Aviator as a lightweight, high-powered, composite
airframe with wings, thruster and flight controls. It is similar
in configuration to the USAF A10 and is piloted by two crew. The
Super Aviator looks like an airplane and flies like an
airplane and is fully hydrobatic. (Click

submersibles.)

The
Super Aviator combines the freedom of scuba and the depth
capability and underwater viewing of a submersible with the low
intrusiveness of a stealth submarine. A traditional submersible
must slowly sink down to its desired depth. The battery-propelled
Super Aviator is "flown" quickly and quietly to its destination.
The
deep ocean is a truly alien world. It has the infinite vastness
of outer space, but unlike space, it is heavily populated with
alien creatures, geologic features, and ancient shipwrecks awaiting
discovery. There is little we can say to prepare you for the mind-altering
experience of a Sub Adventure.
