Bluebird Ultralight Airplane, Flying Slow

The Bluebird! This is a homebuilt ultralight airplane, designed and built by me. It's a flying scooter, just for fun. I'm not very bold, usually just making local flights in fair weather, poking around for my own satisfaction. My Bluebird is a motorfloater, flying slow (light weight, big wing) for comfort, easy flying, and crash safety. The motor is a modern paramotor engine (16 horsepower), there are no ailerons or flight instruments. I start the takeoff with the tail down, but at the end of the flight I can stop with either the nose skid or the tail skid on the ground. The nose down stop makes it easy to get out of the plane, and would also be needed in a strong headwind. For more details see the Bluebird Page: http://m-sandlin.info/Bluebird/Bluebi...
