I also had a trip with Ram Air Microlight School, it was the best thing I've ever done. Great instructor, explained everything before the flight which put my mind a rest, really enjoyed it.
These things are brilliant, the GT450 and Quik R are high performance machines. Much easier to fly than a 3 axis plane and much more fun. I’ve got a bit of onboard film on my channel doing circuits at Redlands in Wiltshire. It’s easy to find. It’s the only video I’ve put up😂. Recommend this to anyone. The only cheaper way to fly is gliders or the unlicensed sub 70kg class of these trikes but only a death wisher would try to fly one without instruction,
I always find itfascinating to observe all of the odd geometric shapes that the different plots of land form into - and always hedged by some sort of tree line or rock wall. Makes me wonder how they got their individual shapes - what forces, political or social, had a hand in forming this geometry?
Read the history of the countryside by Oliver Rackham. Different parts of the British countryside developed in different ways depending on geology, fertility, usage, cultures, inheritance practices and over a very (more than 2000 years) long time period. Boundary marker trees, yes, in some places; but less so in Derbyshire.
Yes they are stable until landing as long as you aim for the best glide speed, without power you are not going to be climbing. The amount they drop without power over distance is called the glide ratio, and because of their relatively light weight they glide better than most aeroplanes. Also you can fit them with parachutes for extra safety if the wing fails for example.
Oh wow, here I am watching your video in Australia when boom! that other microlight in the background used to be mine! :-D G-MZKL Whereabouts were you flying?
@@gregosjez2938 amazing how long these things last. That first flew in 1997. I sold it in 2004 when it was based down in Gloucester. That thing took me around the UK, into France, all sorts of adventures. It's a blast. Hope you enjoyed your flight :-)

@jason Gundry Once you get up to a safe height you will not need a death grip. You can let go of the bar with throttle set and just relax light bar touch. Actually, these can just about fly themselves and a few rare cases they have taken off no pilot by accident. And if you are about 5 to 8 hundred feet high if the engine quits you can glide for about 8 miles.
@@thetommygun958 Yes and the glide ratio would be higher, further glide.At lets say mild wind 1500 feet high you would have time to pick a spot and slowly bring it down .By slow I don,t mean forward and drop speed, you always need to have lift when you need it even when dropping. Engine off practice becomes the best way to learn an engine out. Many people land engine out as a norm in good flying conditions. Watch Larry M .
@@w1qtradio252 thanks for the reply, I'm just thinking about getting started when all this madness is over, what would you say the best tandem microlight is for a beginner? Most reliable or easy to operate
Fuel burn of this microlight is 13 litres p/h at 75mph (about 26mpg for what it's worth). How favourably this compares with a car then depends on which car you wish to compare it to.
Hi Gregos. Are you going to fly in a microlight again. I fly one down under and its a similar model to the one you flew in. Great fun! Here”s a teaser...ruclips.net/user/callsigncrayonbox
Man, these MSFS videos are getting SO realistic !!

Weren't you scared?
whats the cost?
Cool video. Thanks for the upload. Looks a lot of fun!
Flying a Cessna must feel like driving a bus after this.
Hahah.. agree
It does lol
Then a jet airliner must feel like a tank after flying one of theese
Excelente.... quero voar nessa aeronave em breve....

Wowo keren
Amazing
Nie pochwaliles się. Zazdroszczę ci. Zawsze chciałem latać
Great to check cows with.
Grate hope one day I may have that
С виду деды, как деды, а комбез натянул, шлем на голову - и опа, спортсмен, пилот. Я тоже так хочу.

Nice video 👍🏻👍🏻

Can I get info on purchasing
How much price...
Awesome
I’m looking at buying one
What size runway do you need for these ?
Get in touch mate, runway size depend of twelve thousand different factors, I'll tell you about it. usualy the longer the best
@@lolo1080
True
I have a 40 acre square property
wow nice,i want to join this compani as pilot.
Quá tuyệt vời
thatys just as ballsy as a parachute jump

"how they got their individual shapes" Big trees which were originally there (but may be long gone now) were chosen as the boundary corners.

How old do you have to be to fly a microlight/ultralight? Is their even a required age?
Dats Dope
Yeah.... 80
Pliots can start logging hours from 14 but have to be 17 to hold a full microlight licence
You gotta be at least 80.
Age no. IQ below 100
I want to become a Pilot
Horizan always at sea level.🕶
Cruise speed into configuretion
what happen if engine stop on air? Stable until landing?
Yes they are stable until landing as long as you aim for the best glide speed, without power you are not going to be climbing.

Hi sir assamblinge wing only $ how much
Nice to hear UK English voice in this sports.
i wanted this aircraft so i can go to some where easy
Os velhos estão no biko do korvo e ainda voam mto
Me gusta cuanto cuesta
I could get used to that

What is maximum the speed on air for this microlight ..sir. ? Very nice...
Approx 80-100 for microlights of this type
@@CraigToddOfficial miles or km?
@@eogames9957 miles per hour buddy
How's fuel efficiency with this compared to a car?
Fuel burn of this microlight is 13 litres p/h at 75mph (about 26mpg for what it's worth). How favourably this compares with a car then depends on which car you wish to compare it to.
@@deaconswayne1894 thank you 😊
Can I being a civilian make one for myself in India.
That’s about 26mpg at 75mph which is pretty good.
@@deaconswayne1894 This depends on the machine. A sub 70kg microlight can get around 3L an hour although they only do about 45mph.
Can anyone please tell me how and where I learn to fly trikes

I want only wing assamblinge sir

Who said there aren't still flier cars in the xxi century?
i used to make them and have unfortunately been in a crash on landing but can catorgorically state they are one of the safest aircraft around!!
I like this 😃 , fuck expensive car , i want this
0.0
THIS THING IS COSTLY :(
yeah its the only thing stopping me from pursuing this dream of mine
This is the least expensive type of aviation. You can get your license and own your own aircraft for under 30k.
Id chek my life insurence before id hop in that lol
Yes, the most dangerous thing about microlight flying is the drive to the airfield.
Oh, si!
i wanted this aircraft so i can go to some where easy
