The topic of the thesis is a design of an aicraft for towing of gliders. Based on the background research of the towing aircrafts currently used by the Czech aeroclubs and the analysis of the required characteristics of these aircrafts the design of the new airplane has been created. Moreover, the load of engine mount has been determined according to the CS-VLA directive (a certification guidelines for the Very-light aircrafts). Its construction design as well as strength calculation have been elaborated. The part of the thesis is a 3D model of the aircraft and the engine mount.

This master’s thesis deal with design modification of the RAPID 200 (Skyleader 200) airplane for towing at compliance with maximum take-off weight 450 kilogramme. A necessary construction modification, a weight analysis these adjustments and a balance verification are included. The thesis contains of power plants installation consisting from the M 132 engine and the V 541.2 propeller, a towing gear and a landing gear, a load calculation of power plants and towing gear and basic flight performance calculation too. Last but not least valuation of operation ekonomy, operation characteristics assesment and a using of the airplane for specialized duty are included.
