Polaris Motor srl was an Italian aircraft manufacturer based in Gubbio. The company specialized in the design and manufacture of ultralight trikes and was known for its inflatable boat trikes. [1] [2]
One of the company's first products, introduced in the early 1980s, was the Skin, a conventional land trike that remained in production though 2013. The FIB ("Flying Inflatable Boat") established the company's reputation in pure flying boat form and in its AM-FIB amphibious form. [1] [2]
The company carried out continuous development of its boat hulled aircraft, including refining the boat hull shape over time to improve performance on the water and in the air. [1]
By 2014 the company website was listed as "under construction" and then was taken down, and the company was out of business. [3]
