Abstract

The term "ultralight aviation" refers to light-weight, 1- or 2-person airplanes. During the late 1970s and early 1980s, many people sought to fly affordably. As a result, many aviation authorities set up definitions of lightweight, slow-flying airplanes that could be subject to minimum regulation. The resulting aeroplanes are commonly called ultralight or microlight, although the weight and speed limits differ from country to country. There is also an allowance of another 10 % on Maximum Take Off Weight for seaplanes and amphibians, and some countries (such as Germany and France) also allow another 5 % for installation of a ballistic parachute.
