Just test flew a new DJ-II with Sting Ray here in Florida. Similar to Cheval 12 wing I have used but better energy retention and glide and a bit heavier handling with winglets on in roll.

but we are not incorporating the moment offered by tail and wings or moment by any aerodynamic forces, is it correct?

I'm never quite clear of the purpose of the VNE dive or what one would expect to happen if it failed?

Hush up for 5 minutes mate. I just want to enjoy the aircraft sound, plus enjoy the scenery. Yep as a 70 something teenager, one day, I might buy one, but right now I just want to enjoy the silence, and view the scenery. Just 5 minutes, of hush, is all I ask. Thank you.

What's the maximum speed this craft can fly at?

I am looking forward to getting started later on this year. I've been wanting to fly microlights since the early 80s. Usual story, family got in the way. I blame Giles Fowler for getting me hooked again. A fellow ex RAF engineer

Thank you, great revision🛩️

What's the cost difference between flex and three Axel?

Thanks for helping! Currently studying for the check ride and written right now.

Very interesting. I may or may not be more confused now lol. Good Information though.

Although I now fly 3 axis, it's only because my shoulders can no longer take the hammering they got when I flew flexwings. On top of which, I have very little grip strength for holding the base tube of the A frame, so I had to migrate to the 'dark side'! However, given the choice, I'd still much rather fly a flex if my body allowed it. You feel that you're a part of the air you're flying through, and you feel every single gust and eddy of the air, however small it may be. But whichever type of microlight you choose to fly, be proud that you're the best pilots of light aircraft in the UK.

I hope this isn't considered irrelevant but does anyone know if there is a definitive resource that will tell me if I (type 1, insulin dependent diabetic) would be eligible for a PPL that would allow me to fly a flexing? I've had a couple of flights and have been bitten by the bug. TIA.

BMAA. An organisation that you HAVE to join and pay fees just to own and fly a microlight in the UK. In France where there is much less regulation there is a similar organisation called FFPLUM which you can be a member of if you wish.

Do I need a license to fly a Phantom X1. The Phantom X1 is a tractor-configuration (i.e., front engine), high-wing, ultralight aircraft. ... Aerolite 103. Image from FlugKerl2. ... Hummel Ultracruiser. ... Mosquito XEL. What can I fly without a license?

Not sure that I agree with the one type of microlight is better than another but there is a great appeal with both. My wife loves going up in / on flex wings, I like flying 3 axis but have flown hang gliders and powered hand gliders and agree that you definently feel in contact with the air. I am so happy the flex wings are coming back and I think that has a lot to do with Ben and Flylight at least in the UK.

Great Job promoting what we get to experience and enjoy, What a gift!!!

Real pilots fly flex. 👍👍👍

Still grinning today. #whywefly

May I ask about how can we choose the datum line and if the datum line is different between aircraft

While your calculations are correct you go about it in a long windedway. Basically, if you remive the hash line from the box between total weight, and total moment, then divide the momemt by the weight you get your answer. A demonstration on excel would be a lot simpler.

i have solo experience with PA28 (don’t have a ppl yet), may I have the chance to fly a ultralight aircraft in your association?

Excellent informative video for a lapsed pilot trying to revalidate my licence.

A good concise presentation, very glad to say my check flight pretty much matched this great walk through.

I love you

Looks so amazing ❤

Nice! 😊👍🏼

Great video!

If i get my microlight license (NPPL M), will i be able to take my wife for a flight? Assuming I'll be hiring out from my flying club.

super 🎉

great organisation 👍

great stuff 👍

Sadly missed out again this year, looked great though 👍😊

It was a wonderful weekend to meet so many like minded people.

Nice to hear that someone who is WIS&D gets help and support, well deserved 👍👍😊😊

Superb, similar to girls school project culminating in G-GRLS.

No One ever checks the Wing Jesus Bolt, if it Breaks, you Might See Jesus rather quickly....

Great, another very hard subject down! Thanks for the help! :)

Anyone watching this feeling mildly inspired - Just start! I always through aviation was too expensive for me (thought the planes would be 200k, licence too expensive etc). They are not, it's really good value. You could, not that you need to, buy a reasonable Microlight for the price of a new Skoda Octavia. Can rent or buy a share. I have a few videos on my channel. Always seek instruction, But don't exclude yourself from aviation. The BMAA are really efficient too!! Great magazine and knowledgeable staff.

Very good and well done! Professional producers just make so much difference (especially compared to my rubbish efforts :-) ) .

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I'd like to see more - extended versions - of those clips and places, amazing aircraft and amazing views!😊👍

Great video, the joy of being able to fly

Great video, gets right to the point

Fantastic, thank you for featuring us, makes me want to go and get the plane out of the hanger and go flying. I’m sure this video is really going to help those that are thinking of taking up Microlighting, it’s something I’ll never regret.

Great video for an amazing sport.

Keep 'em coming folks, UA-cam is the platform of choice for showing off just how incredible the privilege of cheap accessible flying can be.

Great vid :-) we are lucky to have such wonderful flying machines … Let’s also not forget the cheaper end of flying :-) We can now buy a 2 seat microlight for as little as £2k . :-)

New subscriber sir... Yhnks for this videp sir...it helps me a lot

Superb, well done all.
