Hughes Engineering Products & Services
Hughes Engineering has been proudly designing and manufacturing light sport aircraft since 1986.
Our history began in architecture (70's), boat building/fish trawling (80's), then on to Aviation & Aircraft Design (80's), paragliding & powered paragliding (90's) and arcing into the wonderful realms of solar powered vehicles (00's), flight simulators (90's), telephone & computer software (00's) and 1, 2, 4 and 6 seat aircraft design.
Always with a strong focus on diversifying and strengthening the Australian aviation community and extending the joy of aviation and design to the next generation through education opportunities at high schools and at university level. With this incredible history supporting us, we have the know-how to trouble shoot your projects, manufacture your ideas or provide you with an Australian Workhorse of the sky - The Australian LightWing Light Sport Aircraft.
We are a family run and operated Aviation and General Engineering business, with our strongest focus on customer service, advise and support. You can call or email us directly and discuss your needs or project and we will endeavour to get it underway at the next possible opportunity.
Currently, We are also over stocked! We have incredible Australian LightWing SP2000 aircraft on the factory showroom which need new owners so we have the floor space for our next projects! THESE AIRCRAFT COULD BE YOURS!
