Ximango USA is the North American
source for Ximango Touring Glider aircraft. We
act as consultants for the Brazilian manufacturer, Grupo Aeromot, a long-established
aircraft manufacturing company based in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Ximango USA
is your one-stop source for aircraft, factory spare parts and factory service
support.
Ximango USA was formed in 1995
by three pilots who all had fallen in love with the graceful lines and
the superb flying characteristics of the Super Ximango. We decided to try
to introduce it to the North American sport aviation market because it
was so good and because there was really nothing like it available.
From the first, our marketing approach
at Ximango USA has consisted of high-profile exposure and low-key selling.
High-profile exposure began in 1995, as our group set FAI World Records
ferrying the first three new aircraft, as a formation, from Brazil to the
USA, ending up at the EAA Convention in Oshkosh. Magazine coverage followed,
and we have been featured in, to name a few, Private Pilot, the Robb Report,
Plane & Pilot and Soaring, the magazine of the SSA. ESPN included the
Super Ximango in one of its programs.
Quite differently, our approach
to a prospective owner is a very personal one, pilot-to-pilot and low-key.
All of us are life-long pilots. We believe we
know and fly the aircraft well. We have each been to Grupo Aeromot’s factory a number of times
to see the aircraft made and to participate in business plannning. We all have flown at least one ferry flight
from Brazil to the USA. We believe in the aircraft and in its manufacturer,
Grupo Aeromot.
With such an outstanding aircraft
to sell, our focus when we talk to a prospective owner is understanding
his or her objectives and communicating about the Super Ximango. When we
fly with a prospective owner, it's to understand how he or she will use
the aircraft and to tailor the flight to fit that goal. If it's a fit,
in all honesty, the aircraft sells itself!
