    Sorry EwenT, I wasn’t trying to create divides. Its just that a few years ago a microlight was seen as a hang glider with an engine. Yet I’ve seen over the months a few microlights that actually look like their larger fixed wing cousins, I was just wandering wether they were any good.

    I just assume they are cheaper to learn on and that running costs would also be lower. I was interested if anyone here might own one or has flown a few.

    Flying wise I guess I’m looking at just recreational now and again, I’m not planning to do tours of Europe or anything. It would be nice to see my homeland from a bird’s perspective 😀

    You missed the Welsh 😉

    RE: Well..now thats something!

    This machine has been around for a while, at least 18 months. Seems quite expensive for what it is though. You could probably build a squadron of them for $6 million!

    I heard a similar vehicle was being developed by another company, I think they were Belgium, not sure. I’ll try and get some more info.
