At Positive Aviation, we believe that aviation is a force for good for our society and our environment.

Positive Aviation was born based on two basic observations:

  • Civil protection authorities can only effectively safeguard people, property, and nature when equipped with the right tools.
  • The iconic “Canadair” Super Scooper, a pillar of aerial firefighting, no longer meets the reliability and availability standards required today.

Positive Aviation aims at offering them as early as 2028 an alternative – a new, modern, reliable and efficient amphibious water scooper firefighter aircraft – the FF72.

Positive Aviation is an engineering and industrial company, developing and implementing modifications on second-hand ATR 72 transforming them into amphibious water scooper firefighter aircraft – the FF72. The FF72 leverages proven technologies and combines expertise from both the aeronautical and naval industries.

From development to operations, Positive Aviation is committed to supporting the entire lifecycle of the FF72, ensuring its long-term success.

Our headquarters are located at Toulouse Blagnac Airport, inside Hangar H16, home to our industrial partners and the FF72 development team. It is also where we are assembling the FF72-X1 demonstrator, set for its first flight in 2026.Joining Positive Aviation means being part of the creation of a European seaplane design office, and living the adventure of a new aircraft development which will enter into service in 2028.

At Positive Aviation we favor team work towards pragmatic and realistic solutions and are proud to build on the rich aeronautical legacy to protect what is dear.
