Its first flight Comp Air 9 made in 2011 year, while, due to a number of technical flaws, the release of this model began only in 2012 year. The aircraft was originally supposed to be produced in the already assembled state, however, the final decision was made in favor of the production of special kit-sets for self-assembly, which significantly reduced the cost of the aircraft. Comp Air 9 requires an order of 950 hours, but despite the long time, the aircraft of this model are popular, not only for private owners, but also for small air carriers operating on local and regional routes.

On board Comp Air 9 can accommodate up to six people, including one pilot and five passengers, with himself aircraft cabin is available in two basic configurations, one of which is used in the aircraft designed for the needs of business aviation.

The turboprop power plant of the Comp Air 9 model is represented by the Honeywell TPE331-10 aircraft engine (if necessary, the Honeywell TPE331-12 model can also be installed), which develops a thrust of 1000 hp, which in turn allows unhindered air travel at distances of up to 2778 kilometers ( maximum flight range), at a cruising speed of 463 km / h. One of the disadvantages of this power plant is the costly maintenance and service.

During the three years of production, starting with the year 2012, 10 was built about aircrafts of this model, used by both private owners and for commercial purposes.
