Can't log airplane flight time in an ultralight vehicle.>>
Not sure about that over here, John. We can, or could when I was
working on it, get an allowance against the ultralight license for
gliding time.

Herb,
Note that the Slingshot does not have dual controls. The back seat is only a seat,
nothing else. Will an instructor instruct from the back seat without controls?
Highly unlikely, in my opinion. When I was instructing I would never consider
it.

Pat,
In the UK Ultralights and Microlights are considered aircraft. In the US, contrary
to common sense, the FAA calls things that fly and meet their Part 103 limitations(Single
seat, 5 gal max fuel, 254 lbs max empty wt., max speed 63 mph,

Pat, FAR 61.52 says in a lot of words that the use of ultralight experience
for higher ratings expired on Jan. 31, 2012.

The cold grip of winter here in the West has finally loosed. Today the
temps soared to a dizzying 61 degrees, with no wind even. It was just too
much for a mere mortal to resist. I rolled the Firestar out of the hanger
for the first time since Oct, The runway was firm enough to use without
damaging it with the tail wheel, so there was nothing to stop me. Every
thing checked out and the sky was waiting. My landings were actually pretty
good for a change. I did about 12 touch and go's before I decided that if
the engine was going to quit, it should have already done so. I left the
field and flew over to the ranch next door looking for Coyotes. I only
forgot one thing- my chewing gum. I apparently habitually fly with my mouth
hanging open and after an hour and half, I finally had to land to get rid
of the terminal dry mouth.
Hope that good weather comes to a location near you soon.
Larry
