Flexwing /Fixed Wing

We are in the process of setting up Sub 70 Syndicates/Timeshares around the UK to enable suitable people to have Cost effective Sub 70 flying in Syndicate Owned Sub 70 nanolights.

The idea is that we will match suitable Sub 70 Pilots into Syndicates in popular locations so that they can enjoy inexpensive flying for minimal outlay. We envisage Groups of 5 flyers so that availability should stay good for all in the Group ( We estimate each share being approx £2750 for a Brand New SPHG Flexwing ).
We currently have the possibility of 1 Fixed Wing Sub 70 in the Cambridgeshire area that could have 5 Shareholders involved in Group Ownership for £1350 per share.

Anyone interested should make contact ASAP.

Sub 70Kg Microlights. Strictly speaking these aircraft are termed Self-Propelled Hang Gliders (SPHG)! In April 2017 the CAA issued an exemption allowing Self-Propelled Hang Gliders to be fitted with wheels. Prior to this point all take-offs had to be by foot, hence footlaunched aircraft. These wheeled SPHG aircraft are defined as follows:

An aircraft comprising of an aerofoil wing and a mechanical propulsion device which a) has a stall speed or minimum steady flight speed in the landing configuration not exceeding 20 knots calibrated airspeed; and b) has a maximum unladen mass, including full fuel, of 70 kg, or 75 kg if the aircraft is equipped with an emergency parachute recovery system.

The specified condition is that the aircraft must not fly with more than one person on board.

These aircraft are exempt from registration and also the pilot does not require a pilot’s licence to fly them. Although you do not require a licence you will obviously need some training to enable you to fly the aircraft SAFELY and properly and we strongly advise that you take this training with an experienced instructor, not just your mate who “does a bit of flying”.
