Aero Elite Life Raft

Revere Aero Elite Life Raft – Lightweight, Elite Over-Water Safety for General Aviation

When your flight plan includes time over water, the Revere Aero Elite Life Raft deserves a place on your pre-flight checklist. Designed as the ultimate lightweight liferaft for general aviation, the Aero Elite Life Raft delivers premium safety, rapid deployment, and exceptional stability—without the bulk of traditional liferafts. At just 45 lbs for the 4-person model, it’s one of the lightest liferafts in its class.

The Revere Aero Elite Life Raft is engineered to be the most compact and easy-to-stow general aviation liferaft available. Its oversized 13-inch buoyancy tube provides superior flotation, while internal vertical bulkheads divide the tube into two independent air-holding compartments. This multi-chambered design ensures that even if one compartment is compromised, the Aero Elite Life Raft continues to keep occupants safely afloat.

Inside, the Aero Elite Life Raft offers an exceptionally spacious interior, providing approximately 4 square feet per person—well above typical aviation liferaft standards. An inflatable floor improves insulation and comfort, while the automatically inflated canopy deploys quickly to protect occupants from wind, spray, and sun. Zippered windows and stowage pockets enhance visibility and organization during extended survival situations.

For boarding and in-water stability, the Revere Aero Elite Life Raft includes a heavy-duty boarding ladder and four extra-large, 200 lb weighted ballast pockets designed to keep the raft stable in rough seas. A built-in rain catcher provides a valuable freshwater collection option, while the flashing strobe improves visibility for search and rescue operations.

Each Aero Elite Life Raft is vacuum-packed to provide superior protection from environmental exposure and to reduce long-term maintenance costs. Thanks to this protective packaging, service is required only once every three years—making it a cost-effective, low-maintenance safety solution for aircraft owners and operators.

The Revere Aero Elite Life Raft comes equipped with an extensive survival equipment pack, including USCG/SOLAS-approved signaling devices and essential survival tools, ensuring readiness for real-world emergency scenarios.
