Société Nouvelle d'Aviation Sportive (SNAS) (English: New Society of Sport Aviation) was a French aircraft manufacturer and flight school based in Noillac. The company specialized in the design and manufacture of powered parachutes in the form of ready-to-fly aircraft for the European Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight category.[1]

SNAS produced a line of powered parachutes under the Stryke-Air brand. These included the Stryke-Air Bi and the Stryke-Air Monoplace. Their aircraft designs were noted for their fixed fin to reduce propeller torque effects and also for seating the pilot behind the passenger on their two-place aircraft.[1]

In addition to aircraft manufacturing, the company also conducted ultralight aircraft flight training for both three axis control and powered parachute aircraft types and operated an ultralight aircraft maintenance facility.[2][3]

The company seems to have been founded in 2001 and gone out of business in 2004.[4]
