The AS-20S "Sabine" is a small, light amphibious jet. It was designed as an entry-level option with advanced systems and optimal comfort for the occupant for it's price range. While generally designed to be cheaper than it's competitors, it does come with an unconventional full-cockpit width electronic flight instrumentation system.

It features a somewhat cramped cockpit with a small baggage compartment, two floats mounted on the wings and a central top-mounted jet engine. It is relatively overpowered for the aircraft's stability on water, so an automatic takeoff assistance system was also installed on the aircraft.

For ground operations it features four float wheels and a central retractable gear, with an additional steering wheel on the tail section.

It also features anti-icing equipment by heating, fuel dumping system, pressurised air low-speed maneuvering system, and various other features and tidbits.
