Ultralight Sport aircraft for Sale

This is a real airplane with "N" numbers. This is no longer considered an ultralight/fat ultralight. Be careful, don't buy a 2 seat ultralight that hasn't been FAA certified. Two seat ultralights are no longer legal to fly and can no longer make the transition.

This versatile flying machine can take you just about anywhere.

Always hangared and pampered. Airplane kept in like new condition. One owner, airline pilot, never used the plane for instruction.

New sails about 4 years ago along with a complete airframe tear down with new hardware. Total airframe time: 805 hrs. Total time on new engine & gearbox: 287 hrs. First engine was still going strong easily past 500 hrs. Many fun-filled flying hours to go!

I've flown it all around Northern California including Shasta Lake, Lake Berryessa, Lake Don Pedro for camping and fishing. There's storage in the wings for sleeping bags and fishing poles.
