The Robin Dauphins are renowned for their excellent handling characteristics, ruggedness and low operating costs. They are powered by a reliable Lycoming 4-cylinder engine, with 120 hp or 160 hp or the new JetA1 Centurion 1.7. Their versatility makes them great favorites with aero-clubs and flying-schools where they are operated for basic training, navigation instruction and instrument flying, or as 3-/4-seat, low cost, general purpose airplanes.
