Me enjoying my third high altitude flight with the vintage SG-38 glider at Eskilstuna soaring club during the youth-camp of 2009. A modified old car towed the plane with a 600 m long rope to an altitude of about 200 m. After that; pure flying, as real as it gets. My best flying experience by far!
Running Airbike2 before installing WINGS
UPDATE : This engine is no longer installed on this aircraft. Had to go with a larger one because this one just did not have enough horsepower.
Here is a video of the Airbike running for the first time since getting it home. It only has 5 hrs. TT on it. That includes the 2 hr. break in I ran it for over 4 yrs. ago. After replacing the old fuel with fresh 93 octane, repairing cracked fuel line and the spark plug, she was screaming like it should.......

Ultimate Trike Flying - Extreme Microlight Maneuvering up Carson River
Expert trike pilot Paul Hamilton flies his training aircraft up the Carson River. These are maximum performance maneuvers in this weight-shift control aircraft. Here you see the trike flown to its limits and its performance capabilities by a professional trike pilot.
This perspective puts you in the drivers seat and lets you experience an extreme trike flight on the screen.
This type of flying should not be attempted by any pilot unless they gain over 2000 hours flying a trike in challenging conditions.
Here Paul flies low and close to the ground so the incredible maneuverability/performance of a trike can be shown to all.
