The AMD Alarus CH2000 is a two-seat, fixed tricycle gear general aviation airplane, used primarily for flight training, that was designed by Chris Heintz. It was manufactured by Aircraft Manufacturing and Design Co. in Eastman, Georgia. It is a low-wing aircraft, with one door located above each wing, respectively.[1] It can be considered a competitor to similar aircraft used for flight training, such as the Diamond DA20.
The Alarus features Garmin avionics and a 46-inch-wide (1,200 mm) cabin.[1]
As of 2011 the aircraft is no longer in production by AMD, although Zenair provides parts support.[2]
