Our story
A dream seems like a dream until you start working on it.Adriano Olivetti
And then it may become something infinitely bigger
In 1947 the entrepreneur Hernan J.A. Falco for the first time saw the landing of an aerialin advertising in the Argentinean Pampas. Attracted by the plane, a fixed-wing aircraft, and the idea of flying, he decided to became a private pilot and aircraft modeller. The following decades, he participated in the growth of Aeroclub in Santa Fe and started modelling with his son Daniel Falco.

At the end of 70’s, they specialized on acrobatic aircraft models, that brought them to participation in the recognized F3A WorldCups in South Africa, Mexico, USA, Holland and Australia. In 1987, curious about the new construction materials, fiber glass and composites, Daniel created DAHF, an argentinean company specialized in aircraft models and RPV.
In 1991 the family’s third generation took off, when Javier H. Falco started flying. Javier inherited passion and determination, and developed attention to constructive details and materials. To reach his new flying height he moved to Italy to grow the expertise in composites and create Falco Aircraft.
