The Affordaplane is NOT an ultralight.
I've tried, at length, to keep my personal thoughts on this plane out of it. But, it certainly seems that this plane, in it's to plans form, will not fly as a US legal Ultralight.
I'm open to other evidence, you can leave comments, or e-mail, and I"ll happily edit this post and put your material up instead.
What weight does it come in without engine or fuel. I have been very interested in this but have not been able to find a good answer. Are you talking about the plans with the aluminum wing ribs or foam?
ReplyDeleteHave you ever managed to compile a list of mods needed to get it under the weight limit? i.e., riveting instead of heavy bolts everywhere, thinner gussets, thinner tube in some areas, etc?
