    I've done your scrum course and now I found this. Truly a man of many talents

    For anybody that's confused as to why the UK would make you have a license in America wouldn't just think about the size of the regions we can fly in. You're more likely to be flying over populated areas in the UK.

    Grouping US ultralights with UK flex wings is inappropriate. US ultralights are any plane that has a dry weight under 254 lbs and there are tons of options that utilize traditional stick and rudder controls. Heck, there’s even a few full metal birds that meet the weight limit like the Hummel ultra cruiser.

    Very informative video, I'm looking to get a license to fly but as of right now and for the foreseeable future I won't be able to afford it. So I was thinking, until then, maybe I could get into flying Ultralights

    There are a lot of aircraft you did not touch on. There are quite a few robocraft that fall in the category of ultra light or micro lite. As for fixed-wing there are quite a few different variations that are very cheap to obtain or build. I'm trying to find more of a breakdown on the far of those smaller craft as well as electric fuel hybrids like generator powered electric motors. There's nobody putting any information about this out on CZcams and it is almost impossible to find on Google. I have not purchased a current copy of America's Federal aviation regulations, I am American so those apply to me directly. I would like to see someone put out a more detailed video on the breakdown of the rules and laws for building and operating true ultralights. For instance, you did not touch on any of the ceiling differences between LSA and standard ultralight non-licensed pilots. I'd like to know if there's a difference between the UK and the US on ceilings. . . .

    I would like to see a review of two stroke engines, and a review of a Jabiru (In Australia it is considered a bit of a deathtrap)

      I'm not in the UK but isn't there a sub 60 category? I've heard the term watching the flexwing crowd flying the peebee.

      paragliders/paramotors as far as im aware, although you'd still need training unless your on a suicide mission
