Oh man, I love the color you picked! I'm retiring and moving to Virginia in a couple months, and an aero light 103 is my first purchase!

Thank you for posting. I got an intro to ultralights from Tom in September 2019 and bought my Aerolite kit through him. The custom fuel tank looks sharp.

FINALLY!! Someone that lands the correct way in an ultralight!! Power off, nose down and flair!!

Yeah, most of them land 103 like they’re flying a twin engine and they’ve got to fly the thing onto the runway, craziest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.😂

That was so cool to watch. 👍👍👍😉🤗😘

Thank you 🤗

Very nice....i spent many days at Warrenton airpark....its definitely a beautiful location....if jackie is still there say hello for me..

Love your videos, so relaxing. Keep them coming. Great looking bird!

Very Nice

I just purchased one of these, awesome plane, just haven't flown it yet due to surgery. Maybe before winter!

What a fantastic little aircraft Gee I wouldn't mind owning something like this .............

They need to raise the weight limitation for ultra-lights they would be safer and far more realistic

Looks like a lot of fun. Nice color too.

Great video, thanks for sharing! Great color choice too. :)

Very cool! Thanks for sharing. :)

Sick color bruh

Great video

Great video nice aircraft ! One thing I need to say is SCAN for traffic, most time your eyes are looking forward never losing forward site. Think about this if another aircraft PIC is doing same as you, that would be bad outcome. Again nice video, be safe !

Beautiful bird !

I can't move my neck anymore

What a great little airplane, must be fun! But it's a windy place up there ;)

Great clip!

Yes, a very distinctive color scheme and love the seat/fuel tank combo. Difficult to watch due to the camera angle and position. Where did you find that fuel tank?

Hey Steven! Great video and love the Purple Rain color. I'm up in Loudoun and looking to take the plunge into Ultralights. Did you have prior flight experience? Did you undergo any specific training to fly your ultralight? Thx, from a new subscriber!

So this guy has electric flaps?, looks like you backed off the throttle after deployment, is it a big difference in stall speed?.

Nice video. I have never flown ultralights, think I may build one. In a C172 we don’t use flaps on take off except in grass short field or floats. I am curious, I noticed you used flaps on take off on a paved runway, is that necessary in ultralights?

On a decent runway, flaps aren't necessary on a c-172, but generally speaking, isn't 10° of flap the recommendation for takeoff configuration?

@@BillSmith-rx9rm I was used to 10* flaps for take at on grass strips at Magnetawan Airstrip Ontario and on floats then flew from Brampton Ontario for a check ride on a paved runway. I selected 10* flaps for take off and was questioned why I would do such a thing by the check ride pilot. I know some pilots use flaps on take off but it really isn’t necessary on a long paved runway in a C172.

@@BillSmith-rx9rm yes I do. In downwind leg I reduce power to about 1600 rpm before turning base, below 100kt select 10* flaps and turn on base. Slow airspeed to 65kts then select 20* flaps at 500 ft agl turn final and approach about 55-60. Love your plane and video, great talking to you.

Do you need to communicate with the tower?
