- Speed, safety, quality and a perfect design. This is the Stream.
A super-fast fighter jet? After you climb into the Stream, you’ll experience the same feelings as military pilots. Seats placed behind each other and the well-thought-out shape of the aircraft. The most modern glass cockpit and the maximum amount of control elements on the sidestick. A perfect design, aerodynamically clean, with precise control. A robust retractable landing gear and a ROTAX 912UILS engine with a PowerMax propeller mean just one thing: safety, high speeds and an unbelievable flying experience! The Stream is the future. The Stream is setting the trends for ultra-light flying.
Looks like a damn fine plane. Makes me want to take up flying.
40hrs n test n you good to go
What a beautiful aircraft, at any angle it's beautiful! Simply watching it, whether in flight or on the ground, makes me want to go flying again! I love this video. Thanks for posting it.
People in the comment section don't seem to understand that this is considered an ultralight in europe, where its produced. Every country has its own definition.
Didn't know of the 'Couple Hundred Grand' catagory for Ultra Lights. I must have been folding socks that day.
99'900 EUR for 335 km/h
What a beauty, Definitely not an ultralight under Canadian regulations but still nice and I REALLY want one!
I came here after flying it in Microsoft Flight Simulator. In the sim, it is so much fun to fly, it has a military aircraft look and feel.
This airplane looks like it's a blast to fly.
Please consider a Rotax 915 for the US market. With a turbo charged engine around the power output of the 915 the stream may be capable of 200 knots (370 kph) cruise speed at higher altitudes. That kind of performance is very expensive, not only in procurement cost but also operating costs. Comparable aircraft with similar performance (200+ knot cruise) currently use large engines and many have high landing speeds. You guys have a great design that could have a niche in the US with a bigger engine.
This plane is not qualified for ultralight or LSA in the US. The company might as well put a bigger engine and sell it as regular aircraft but the certification will make it too expensive.
@@2Phast4Rocket Then market it as "Experimental" and not this LSA garbage...... it would pass any certification at that point and I for one would be all over it.
@@philipabernathy2504 : That is my point. The plane does not meet the LSA rules in the USA. It certainly won't meet the experimental rules either because it cannot be built by a builder with at least 51% of his effort. Needless to say, it will be be sold in the USA with the current form.
@@2Phast4Rocket Well, in the picture of it from Sun 'N Fun, its wearing the 'experimental' tag on the side and the owner spent 30 days at the manufactures location building the 51% required so it seems it does meet the requirements. generalaviationnews.com/2019/04/03/200-mph-on-100-hp/#more-126604
Then go for a Dark Arrow. 200hp, 240 ktas, $160k.
Wow, now this is a manmachine! Awesome job guys...
How are the TL Stream, Tarragon, and Blackshape different? They all seem to be based on the Millenium Master. I cannot wait until these planes are available under LSA rules in the US ... They're all stunning!
A thing of beauty. Awaiting the turbine version!
What a beautiful aircraft!
Beautiful design!
A beautiful looking aircraft! Congrats!!
I agree it's very sleek..
if it looks good it flies good! this one is beautiful
These guys are complete genius engineering this aircraft.
Wish that I could afford this aircraft...
Well lets us see. Its one thing to design something beautiful and another thing to sell. The irreputable dealers will sink your ship by price gouging and destroy the market. Most reputable brands like Rolex watch out for price gouging. I was so disappointed when the dealer asked 300,000 USD. He said the demand is high !. Vow
That's the most beautiful light aircraft
Kim kanga nooks Aircraft optimised for aerodynamic cleanness tend to be beautiful.
It seems to fit the definition for light sport aircraft. At the speed it flies, it will get you someplace place fairly quickly.
So is it a light sport aircraft, or is it an ultra-light? An ultra-light doesn't require a pilot's license, where a sport slight or light sport aircraft, requires some form, even a very base form of license
She's a gorgeous aircraft.
Beautiful aircraft
Muito legal seu Canal parabéns 🕭🔔🌏
Awesome! I'm a huge fan! Love the TL-3000 too...very much!🙏🇺🇸👍
Plant
Now imagine mating this airframe with a compact little turbine such as the Allison 250!
I guess, then this thing would cost pretty much the double price
@@Breenild and also x10 to price of maintain. This aircraft in perfect balance. Maybe rotax 914 is only resonable option.
TL must have read your comment, as you can now buy the STREAM with a turbo-prop, although it's the smaller Allinson 100 unit.
I need to see a spin demonstration, and I would like to know what is VNE, as well as a little demonstration of that. Also need to see if it can handle a little "recovery from unusual positions/attitudes".
demonstrate Vne?
VNE 335 km/h, VDF 360 km/h (tested) The manufacturer is at LKHK, you're welcome to have a test flight and enjoy the fighter jet experience
The design process is much like WWII designs to build them light, strong, and powerful.
Every ultralight is a fighter jet nowadays. And every squirrel is a pitbull.
I think the FAA would disagree with your definition of "ultralight". Nice plane, however, 297 kg or 655 lbs makes it too heavy to qualify under Part 103. As far as speed, this thing has a minimum speed of 65 knots which exceeds the max 55 knots, at least in the US.
I believe only one passenger to fly without a license also.
@@johnwidell8092yes, but there are two passenger ultralights. They are best for training: pilot and student.
The US is irrelevant as it's a European aircraft. European rules are slightely different.
It’s an European ultralight, it’s basically what you would call an LSA I believe.
@@johnwidell8092 You are correct one passenger, the pilot..
That's a sexy looking plane... really like it.
congradulations!!!! you just redesigned an rv4 at 10 times the price
I wish I had one sure looks nice👍
The line seems like a short, little Super Tucano Embraer
Super nice !
Beautiful! awesome job guy
Maybe “experimental”. Very nice looking and performance. Probably need to ship your luggage if 2 people are in it.
Nice until a UFO comes cruising by.
UPS to the rescue ! That’s what I do anytime I fly anywhere - Ship your BS and don’t worry about it !
I just carry a little bitty bag - Works great for me . That aircraft looks like a hoot ! Cool !
For everyone asking if it's an ultralight here in the states, I'm fairly sure the answer is no. It is an ultralight in Europe and light sports aircraft here in the U.S.. please correct me if I'm wrong. But, I'm fairly confident that's correct.
The trailing-link main landing gear looks very forgiving.
Beautiful machine .
A 250 grand ultralight ? There will be some meat ball put in a turbine . Won't sell many at those prices .
look at the price of an icon a5 , ,same lol
I agree
Beautiful machine
That's got to be expensive!
Far too expensive.: 200 000 euros! Et plus... Pour voler environ 100 heures par an au maxim..
Looks very similar to the Shark UL.
Aaa a perfect design.
And an option for a centre stick?
Hey Santa! Guess what I want for Xmas?!
US Ultralight aircraft from what I remember = less than 250(?) Pounds, airspeed less than 55 mph (?), less than 5 gal fuel AND a single seat. This is a light sport aircraft
But it is ultralight with carbon fiber and whatnot.
No, this is in fact an ultralight aircraft. Remember that US regulations are very different than from the rest of the world. Microlight aircraft (sometimes incorrectly named "ultralight") are basically powered hang-gliders with a very tight restriction regarding power, speed and range. In the US, LSA is the closest approximation to the European ultralight category. Ultralights are usually somewhat lighter than LSA, but without any upper restriction for speed or range, so some ultralights have a Vne at 170 kts and an operative range of a thousand km or more.
@@thomaskolb8785 Are you related to the Kolb Ultralight flyer in US?
phapnui No, or at least not as far as I know.
I think you need to read the definition of 'ultralight'
Ultralights in Europa have a completely different definition than in the States, in Germany everything with a single-engine, two seats or less and below 600kg (1300lbs) MTOW is an ultralight.
@@generic13372 : that makes sense. for wake turbulence avoidance, the pilot declares the weight to the tower.
light is under 7,000kg
medium is under 136,000kg
Heavy is under 560,000kg
Super is over 560,000 made for the Airbus A380
and it would make sense that ultralight would be a specified value for air traffic control, although I expect that not too many airports see both Heavy and Ultralight planes coming and going on the same runways.
Dave -in-NJ it is legally an Ultralight! And now?
@@mr.ginnationfunlifestyle3891 : I wish I could say "let's go flying"
Definitely was excited to see a what a sleek ultralight was -:was disappointed when it looks like an lsa instead
Infelizmente não é vendido no Brasil,por um preço competitivo acho q venderia muito bem
Dear Santa, I want one, pleeeeeeease...
FAA ultralight definition...If powered: Weighs less than 254 pounds (115 kg) empty weight, excluding floats and safety devices. Has a maximum fuel capacity of 5 U.S. gallons (19 L) Has a top speed of 55 knots (102 km/h; 63 mph) calibrated airspeed at full power in level flight.
For the USA. Europe has a different definition of ultralight
I liked this plane it has a serious face, it can get better!
OK for those who don't know most of European UL rules. Not more than 500 kg MTOW. Not more than 300 kg empty weight. Not more than 65 kph for landing speed. Not more than one passenger. Not more than 100 horse power... That is all.
magnifique super video :)
When cars fly and stable and reliable light weight will be bright future.
In nz, i think this would qualify as a microlight. A class 1 step up from an ultralight.
Beautiful airplane.....People must be a whole lot richer over there !
in US there are approximately 4 millions millionaires asap
I'm going to buy one... this will be my first airplane.
first can buy lot better many cheapen plane, cessna can buy 4000-16000$ and piper and many other good biggest better plane can buy under 30 000$ many many many . idiot waste money 100 000$ when can buy same size plane 3-5x cheapen.
@@mattivirta you are in a dream world with your broken english. Its actually 300,000. Call the dealer!
BINGO ! Yes Please 👍
Are you guys planning on making this certified in the US
Definitely not under far 103
not possible at all in the USA
@@gordo1163 They'd have to do it like the shark aircraft.
Nice plane! But in the US it's not an ultralight. It's at least a light sport. Ultralights are restricted to pilot only & fixed gear, 5 gal. of fuel, if I remember correctly. And, top speed is about 60-70 mph. I bet it's fun to fly! I'd like to have one, but out of my pay grade.
There is more country in the world than just the USA
@@douglasanderson1276 That's true, and rules vary. I was thinking out loud about here. I think I'm talking myself into a light sport.
perfect design, Like...
2 people?!?!?!! Thats Not a Ultralight anymore but its still a cool plane
I'd like to see this thing with a toroidal propeller.
Did I just watch a 6min 20sec commercial?😨
Pretty machine!
Ultralight must mean something else in wharever country this is from. Doesnt state
its weight.
They do make nice products in the Czech Republic. Guns, RV's. This aircraft's construction is impressive. It's a different mindset, remember when *Boeing* was good?
Must be Fudge Ultra light
It moved from airport to airport feds never able to get ahold of it.
The TL Ultralight is 650lbs. Cruises at 180 MPH and carries 24.3 gallons of fuel. It costs 185,000 Euros or 206,000 USD.
In the U.S., flying an ultralight doesn't require a license or a medical certificate of any kind, providing the aircraft meets the Federal Aviation Regulation called Part 103.
Max. Empty Weight (Powered Aircraft)
254 lbs
Max. Empty Weight (Unpowered Aircraft)
155 lbs
Max. Fuel Capacity
5 Gallons
Max. Speed @ Full Power
55 knots
Max. Stall Speed (Power Off)
24 knots.
You would need a private pilots license to fly this airplane in the United States.
@Ade Matthews true. Also, for anyone not familliar with the regulation in place within most of the EU, we can't even fly powered gliders without licenses here, maybe that's why we have more lax laws regarding ultralights.
DrHillbillyShow in the US is not Europe. In the US it will be probably an LSA. In Europe it is an Ultralight up to 600kg if certified for this.
This plane weighs over 650 pounds empty, so you will still need a license to fly it (unlike ultralights under 254 pounds). I have no idea how much this costs (very hard to find, even on their website), but a used one from 2010 was $72000US. So, I'm guessing well over 100 grand new.
Definate similarities to the Blackshape Prime and Shark, but that is ok. They are both great airplanes!! This airplane will not qualify as LSA in the US because of the retractable gear, but could be flown as an Experimental. TL Ultralight has always produced affordable planes, such as the Sting series of aircraft. Hopefully this plane will be available in the US for less than $130,000 U.S. Dollars.
Very good
Hadley likes this! I've no lowing experience though
why not a streamlined exhaust stack????
1,400km range, >300kph
Quite impressive numbers... bet it doesn’t come cheap
Another nice plane!
You are pricing yourself out of business, I talk to all the private pilot CFIs and they are all staying away from these because of cost to high
Curts Review what price to you expect on this? About €60.000.- to 80.000.-??? Something like that??? Did you understand the development costs, the top technology of the plane? You can buy a C42 if you do not want to spend that much money. People and of course pilots will buy this plane, as well pilots buy C42, Tecnams, FKs and what so ever. Its like in the car business, you can buy a Smart or a Mercedes, both are well in the market. If you think it is too expensive, do not buy it. Some other guy will think, woow nice, I can afford it and I will buy it. But please stay realistic in your options. The Stream will not run TL out of business. The company is strong and perfect in business. Let everybody enjoy their personal dreams.
Realis Immobilien Management & Service --I totally understand market living in Florida!
Remember if a guy does a job and buys million dollars worth of equipment to do a $100k job he can’t expect to raise price for development n research for the job, if he wants more customers he will keep the price at cost plus 30-40% until he has more customers and proven record. You can’t charge for research etc that’s part of building your product n reputation, and u can’t charged based on market of PROVEN COMPANIES THAT HAVE A GREAT BALANCE SHEET, if so you will likely not survive, I think getting more customers is more important at first than trying to charge the most, that’s just me. Keep in mind FAA is going to change weight limits or useful load!
I love your airplane !!!!!
I just hate to see the people who brought it to market not survive!
I also know from experience yes you will sell no matter what to RICH POCKETS because they always have money, and will spend no matter what!!!!!
Think in terms of middle class to upper not upper to middle, my thoughts.
Wish luck
Just a random piece of advice-... build a glider version as well...which can compete with motor gliders and sailplanes...
Nice!
Great Design 👍 👍 👍
Attractive aircraft and impressive numbers from a very competent company. I'd like to know the projected price.
It will cost more than 400,000 USD. If it has to be imported to the USA, the certification will push it over 500,000 USD, even more expensive than the four seat Mooney
@@2Phast4Rocket Totally out of reach for the working man! Let me know when someone can do that for $60,000 USD.
@@yellowhammer4747 wow, quite a price tag indeed!
@@yellowhammer4747 basically it price is just 90 000 euros which is about 78k dollars.
@@2Phast4Rocket its actually 78k dollars for me in EU, dont know how much it would be for you un the US
Baby war bird I like.
Thought "Ultralight" meant Single pilot only and Max speed of 55knots?
looks good .. but what are the SPECS - DETAILS - PRICES - COSTS .. where can you buy - test fly .. where is it made ? etc etc etc ........ need more INFO pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee ;) -Captain D-retired ATP
That`s not an US ultralight.
No shit! What gave you the first clue?
not all ultralights need be from America.
In the US that wouldn't make the requirements for an ultra-lite or light sport. It has retractable gear and is way too fast. I can see it being certified under the Experimental Category.
let me guess a quarter million dollars for an ultralight? lol
I think it is closer to $200,000... so, not just in that neighborhood, but next door neighbors !
@@dave-in-nj9393 only totally idiot pay this 200 000$ no newer, under 100 000$ must be have.
I always have the exact same comment every time I see one of these latest and greatest airplane videos.
It appears aircraft manufacturers are only interested in appealing to the multimillionaire class.
@The94GTC
Gotta love the tort system.
@The94GTC yeah that's pretty bad when a little pickup is getting close to the cost of a big rig truck.at least when I pay that kind of money I at least get a fridge and 2 beds in it and I can make money with it to lol.instead of just showing off to people I GOT MONEY haha
@TL-ULTRALIGHT How many of these if any have been certified in the U.S.? Am I correct in thinking they'd have to be in the Experimental Category here?
'
coool nice pretty airplane...
no wonder why pilot use a coooool tint sunglass
It looks an awful lot like the Shark
Very charming plane, but in no way an Ultralight or LSA, in the US at least, per federal regulations. Max gross takeoff weight 1320lbs. Or 1430lbs. for seaplanes is only one aspect regulating the LSA designation. (Top speed 120 knots, max stall speed 45 knots) the others. WAY to fast to be an LSA and probably too heavy as well, wet with even just the pilot aboard, much less a passenger.
I think it's great, yes it is first glance.
How much is it in that configuration displayed in the videoclip in Europe?
nobody seems very keen to show us the magneto's that fire the VW engines, is there a reason for this?
It’s got ultralight in the name so is it’s weight category ultralight 254
Does "Ultralight" imply part 103 (254lbs dry weight) in this case, or is that only applicable in the United States?
Isn't "TL-Ultralight" the name of the company (not a type designation)?
There's no way it categorized as an ultralight. I believe an ultralight power limit is capped at 25 or 35 hp.. it wouldn't be going over 200 knots if that were the case
The wing is repairable? Dude.
Just in case of stop engine
I like it. Sleek like a sailplane. What's the price?
Ultralight......yeah right! Nice plane tho, just make sure you have at least a spot pilots license!
why doesn't the step retract???
take my money
This plane is an ultralight, as in legal in part 103 rules in the US?
A good turbine option would be a PBS TP100 turboprop engine. Light, slim and affordable. So this UL aircraft could be unbeatable .. It would be worth a try. Success sure !!
Nice vid #briantbradshaw
I thought by law an UL could only have 1 person onboard
That is absolutely correct. FAA Part 103
The European rules are different, here ultralights require a license to fly, can be heavier and can carry 2 people max (pilot included).
How much?
