  • I flew with Paul in Kauai, Hawaii...he was totally awesome...hey Paul, I soloed on my Airborne Edge X, I am just building experience before my check ride, I hope to see you soon.

  • That was allot of fun providing intro/discovery lessons in Kauai. Glad to hear you are becoming a trike pilot.

  • cam you fly them any were

  • Yes, with a sport pilot license or a private for weight-shift control, you can fly almost anywhere

  • you do not need a license to buy this or fly it you just need to learn how. i think u need one in germany though

  • In the US, you DO NOT need a license to fly a single seat, but you do need a FAA sport pilot license two fly a two seater

  • Law or no law you need proper training to fly a trike safely unless you have a death wish. I am so amazed at people asking "do I need a license to fly this"? As opposed to what, "can I go fly this without training or license to see if I can kill myself"? What kind of stupid question is this honestly. I have been training people to fly trikes and have created now dozens of pilots and many many pilots who were airplane pilots and all needed on average 12 to 15 hours to solo

  • Do i need a license To buy or fly a trike in norway, And how much does it cost?

  • ...and here in the UK there is a 'Quik' from Pegasus which has a speed trim wheel (think it adjusts the luff on the trailing edge) which means you can fly at 100mph (if you can afford the fuel!)

  • ...and trikes don't have rudders. The Air Creation (Fun GT Bis) has a very nice foot throttle - it's a cast alloy hinged footrest, a bit like a car accelerator pedal (auto gas pedal..?)

    Nice Vid!

  • do you need a pilot license to fly these
