Design and development The Grosso Aircraft Easy Eagle 1 was designed by Ron Grosso, and the production rights were sold to Great Plains Aircraft Supply Company.
The Easy Eagle 1 is built with a steel tube fuselage that is fabric covered. The wings are all wooden construction. It uses the same one piece, all-aluminum landing gear as the Monnett Sonerai.
The Easy Eagle is built from plans; there is no kit available, although Great Plains supplies some sub-assemblies. The estimated time to complete the aircraft from the plans is 300-500 hours.
