The Escapade has been developed to meet the demand for a two place side-by-side dual control (individual stick controls) aircraft that can be used for training as well as recreation.

The original Escapade earned the United Kingdom's BCAR (British Civil Aviation Requirement) Section S structural – and flight – test standards.

The Escapade can be installed with any power plants in the weight range of the Rotax 912/914 or Jabiru 2200 aircraft engine. Jabiru can provide from the firewall forward.
