Abstract:
This light aeroplane at the same time fulfilled the weight limits for the European ultra light class or acolyte class as do at the same time for the US-American sport plan Category. It comprises an engine arranged at the nose and is provided with tractor airscrew and the cabin cell that is arranged behind the engine and is wide enough for two adjacent passenger seats. A central tube (1) with a 200 mm diameter extends forwards towards the engine and to the rear at least behind the front edge of the lateral rudder and elevator control. Everything else is constructed around said tube. A square profiled element (12) is transversally guided edgeways beneath the central tube (1) and is rigidly connected to the same in a positively engaged manner. An upwardly projecting tube bend (11), which arches over the length of the square profiled element is fixed to the rear side of the square profiled element (12) with the ends thereof. The level of a virtual plane cabin floor is defined above the square profile (12). The free space above said floor is orthorhombic: at least 190 cm long, at least 45 cm wide and at least 40 cm high.
