Why Diamond. A Family Business. A Global Company.

Developing and building a family of aircraft takes a long-term commitment and an unwavering vision - it's not for the faint of heart. Diamond not only has the vision and resources, but an owner who embodies the spirit of innovation.

With the passion of an accomplished pilot, and the vision of a successful entrepreneur, Christian Dries has led Diamond Aircraft's growth from building only a single motorglider to offering general aviation's most innovative and diverse family of personal and business aircraft. The growth of the Diamond Aircraft family exemplifies his personal commitment to delivering aircraft that pilots want.

Train with the Best

Safety goes beyond just a good airplane. We're proud of our safety record, and know it takes safe pilots to ensure safe flights. Diamond's commitment to quality doesn't stop when we deliver your aircraft. We believe that high quality training is as critical to your safety as a well-designed aircraft.

That's why we're building a network of Diamond Flight Centers (DFC) across North America. DFCs are an exclusive group of schools committed to providing high-quality flight training using Diamond aircraft and Diamond- specific flight training simulators. Hand-selected by Diamond and our Diamond Distributors, DFCs meet demanding standards. We require them to develop and utilize a set of Standard Operating Procedures and structured syllabi focusing on Diamond aircraft, ensuring that your total training experience, will be the best in the industry.
