Nice aircraft! The 912 must be wonderful to be flewn on a microlight :) Isn't the trike too heavy? I prefer lightweight trikes, but with a 912 engine.. I wouldn't hesitate either :) I love flying low over rivers and hills, I should have a more reliable engine than the 2 stroke versions..

Hi Mate, I used to have a 503 Quantum, but the 912 Quik is a great machine. I can cruise @80+mph, which is great for the Trans Europe trips. and gives a bit more comfort across the channel. Looks like you have some good flying last year from your vids. Happy Flying

Excellent clips,thats my next project,how much would a similar machine cost please?How long to cross the channel?Looks awesome!!!!

You can pick up a second hand machine in UK for around £3K but the one in these clips is more expensive. Its great fun give it a go, although I am not sure how widespread flying these type of machines is in the Philipeans

Thank You! Well, yes I had, but it's never enough :) I am now staying in Dubai, where a few days ago I was also allowed to fly a 912 engine microlight on 15 sq wing :) It's really fun, although the conditions here are very new to me :) Wish you safe landings! I will have some videos later :) Gary

I am back in London at the moment,I can do a microlight course in the Philippines up at Clarkes,how much did your machine cost please?I have a book on flying around the world in a microlight,excellent read,but a machine such as yours looks like total freedom,just fill her up and off you go :-)
