  • that plane gives ugly a whole new chapter.

  • @pgpete I thought the same of the Sonex when it first came out, but through the years its grown on me. The true beauty of this thing is its simplicity. 

  • could it make it 50 miles? Can a larger fuel tank be installed?

  • @yankman91 Fuel tank size is limited by Part 103. Make it an experimental and all things are then possible.

  • do you need a pilots license to fly this?

  • @yankman91 No license is necessary to fly this plane, or any Part 103 compliant ultralight.

  • @contactmag :)

  • All those tubes and wires would be alot of drag, no?

  • @contactmag

    Yes but not all, like the escapade Kid and others: less drag= less power for the same performance,and you can install a Wankel or the Brigg&Stratton 630 4 stoke (up to 38hp) more and more use in europe: less noise, less consumption, more range...

  • @oiseautempete As with most ultralights.
