@jimbobheath Nope, Its just like any other aircraft. You have to fly within your fuel consumption rate and operational limits. For this particular Trike its around 12l/h with 65l tank, which makes roughly 5 hours.
Yup, its Rotax 503. Consuming somewhere around 10L/h.
It's actually a two seater, if you look carefully I have a 20L reserve Jerrycan tied on the back seat. Otherwise it would have been a one way ticket on this trip.
Dual wheel configuration is bit stiff while taxiing, but works nicely on soft soil.
@kaptipepe Hey dude, awesome vid. But I don't get the nose gear, why the two wheels. Seems less stable, and possibly less lateral traction that you'd want up front in the nose.
i think i saw you guys flying on thursday when i was jogging. I thought "Thats cool!" just wondered what kind of scenery opens up in the sky. Looks beautiful.
Beauiful ! love it. I will give to you, score 10 : ))

10 litres a bit stiff I am looking around to have a BMW boxer or a SV650. Beeing in love with trikes it after paragliding.
I see you 'dropped' your passenger in order to get a return ticket :))))

See my answer below about the license.
Prize can vary from used with tag of few thousand euros up to 60 000 Euros.
Depends from manufacturer, engine, airframe, instruments, etc.

Criteria and legislation vary between countries, but usually you need a "Microlight" or "Ultralight" pilot license to fly it.
