Marcarl Posted July 12, 2012 Share #3 Posted July 12, 2012 Best keep your wing, I can hear it already,, all those comments you would have to read,, bad enough having a wing I would say. AND, it doesn't have any lean, so what good is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyinfool Posted July 12, 2012 Share #4 Posted July 12, 2012 And it still don't help if you are stuck in traffic. Yes you do need a special license for that if it weighs more than 254 lbs. You would need a pilots license. But I just happen to have a pilots license already.............Hmmmmmmm........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(excluding anything that is not self-powered) It is called an ultralight. It is a whole class of small airplanes that must comply with Part 103 of the FAA rules. One of the rules is that it must weigh under 254 lbs, WITHOUT my lard butt in there. There are actually quite a few designs to choose from. Many companies make small aircraft and advertize them as ultralights but they are not legal as ultralights. There are also legal ramifications of landing and taking off from a highway.
