Shark microlight airplane test

[@oldschoolmotorsickle]

What a beautiful airplane, And such beautiful terrain to overfly! Excellent video.

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Thanks David :)

[@Griechenwoos]

Schönes Flugzeug!

[@ThePhobicFlyer]

Fantastic looking aircraft!!

[@charlesmackeurtan6596]

This thing is awesome!! Just love the fact that it has retractable gear, Hate those planes with those massive wheels and shoes constantly causing insane drag... I WANT ONE OF THESE!!!!

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Check out Shark social networks. Try the plane if you are considering to buy one :)

[@corporalpunishment1133]

Spectacular 👍🇭🇲

[@yusufbagran2725]

Hello, I am watching your videos from Turkey. Amateur aviation is not very developed here, it is very enjoyable to watch your videos, congratulations.

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Hi, thanks a lot and greetings to Turkey :)

[@microlightmadnessuk]

Would love to go in one of these one day. Very cool 🔥

[@Brumiani]

Fantastic plane¡¡¡¡

[@cadude145]

What a stunningly beautiful bird. Based on your cruise speed you quickly you moved faster that our light sport regulations allow. (USA ,) not that I could afford the beautiful plane)

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

The speed is in km/h. What kind of limitations are in US that whould not allow this as LSA or experimental ?

[@sl66ggehrubt]

@@FLYINGADDICTed 120 knots, which you hit on climb-out!

[@whitetrashgarage8110]

​@sloth6765 He said 120km/hr which is about 75 mph.

[@N9197U]

@@whitetrashgarage8110 it still passed 120 knots in the video (6:56 134 knots)

[@antonygill5104]

Awesome

[@thepilotF]

Is it planned to offer test flights? I am interested in this plane.

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Yes. Please contact [e-mail]. They will arrange a demo flight for you.

[@IlIlIlIlIlIlIlIl-v9h]

Canopy planes always make me nervous. What do you do if it’s upside down?

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Oficially you should not be upside down :)

[@IlIlIlIlIlIlIlIl-v9h]

@@FLYINGADDICTed lol I’d rather not burn to death in a post crash fire.

[@DanFrederiksen]

Try putting 3M vibration absorption tape on the inside of the hull

[@antoniog9814]

I like when he says, "We are leveling off at 3,000 ft and accelerate the plane. So check out the speed and how fast it goes up." 6:08 How can we see if the camera doesn't zoom in on the instruments?

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Maybe I have a quite large monitor but I can see the numbers of the airspeed pretty good. What did u use to watch the video ?

[@antoniog9814]

@@FLYINGADDICTed A 21" monitor, but the camera doesn't zoom close enough and there was a reflection on the instruments.

A beauty

[@sidchronicle2365]

Not gonna lie coming in to land is definitely a scary view. Maybe I just haven't been in a plane in a while or been in something like this.

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

When I was in training, I had the same feeling :) It disappeared quickly.

[@wernerdanler2742]

What a neat little airplane! Is this a kit plane? Where is it made? Is the landing gear fully retractable or just the nose gear? What is its ceiling and does it have oxygen?

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

It is not a kit...Its made in Senica, Slovakia. Landing gear os fully recractable. I am not sure about the ceiling but it does not have an oxygen.

[@wernerdanler2742]

@@FLYINGADDICTed thank you. 😊

[@IksinskiTomek]

beautiful airplane, bravo !! But side stick sucs, sometimes you need right hand to write something or to do something with right hand and you can't. It would be perfect if had stick in center. And the price over 200'00$ far to much ;(

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Autopilot will assist you here to write something down. I was surprised how comfy the stick is. In calm air, Shark is so stable that it literally fly by itself :) It is not cheap plane but overall quality and feeling is worth the money.

[@luissol3964]

What gas uses?

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Standard Mogas... Natural 95

[@ingith123]

What is it stressed for and is it aerobic?

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Ahoj, the maximum ultimate load factor is +6/-3 and aerobatics is forbidden.

[@IksinskiTomek]

@@FLYINGADDICTed ....no aerobatics??? No spin, loops ???

[@sharkairplane]

@@IksinskiTomek Depends on the country of registration and local rules.

[@lagunaseca95]

The plane is superb. Am I wrong or the pilot's position is very horizontal?

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

What do you mean by "very horizontal"?

[@funnybean1171]

what's the price of shark airplane?

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Depends on the configuration strongly. Around 250k EUR.

[@geoffbarton3653]

Awesome aircraft

[@franzkampka5967]

Sehr schön 😅

[@zion3140]

What's its range?

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Max range is cca 2700km in the most economic settings.

[@memestopyoutubeless3157]

Retrovisor? Ui

[@MariusKubilius]

Not removing safety pin from parachute handle makes me nervous.

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Good point, it should be removed.

[@jocaliso1]

Eu quero um desse! Vou pedir ao Papai Noel de presente.

[@almirsoares543]

Muito lindo Cho de eronave

[@zendoc49]

The prop not spinng, what does it use for thrust. Electromotive force !

[@garymyers6638]

it appears to be a very exciting aircraft but no matter what video I'm watching about it and who produced that video, they just show normal flight. Please show this aircraft living the exciting life we know it can live. Loops, rolls, cuban Esses, etc. Fly that thing like it's owned by the government.

[@tinman8972]

Well, this would NOT be deemed an "ultralight" by the FAA, it's a light sport aircraft.

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Here in Czechia it is UL category with 600kg MTOW.

[@mauriceevans6546]

Does not qualify as light sport

[@autosave1670]

@@mauriceevans6546 ...in the US. There are more countries than the US just saying.

[@mikestirewalt5193]

Since your largest market for this plane is going to be the U.S. and the U.K., I suggest you knock off the metric and use plain old miles per hour. Metric has it's place, especially when dealing with close distances or tolerances, but for distance/quantity/rate please use "normal" measurements. It saves having to grab a calculator whenever a value is given in metric.

[@mareksykora779]

Sorry. People in Europe hate miles, knots, gallons. We should even kick off the feet from the international aerospace.

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

I read comment like this very often also on the Shark channel. Many people mainly from US behave like the imperial units would be the only one in the world. Guess what - it is not. We commonly use metric units for flying and it is totally "normal" for European pilots.

[@mikestirewalt5193]

@@FLYINGADDICTed Imperial units are for Canada and perhaps Australia. Knots and nautical miles are for boats, not planes. Check some history. Inches, feet and miles are for normal use among those who have the largest economy on the planet (where planes are sold) and where the aircraft was officially invented (although I know that's only very partially true).

[@mareksykora779]

@@mikestirewalt5193 You have very nicely described all the mess that should belong to history. Now we have SI units, meters and all higher units by simply multiplying by ten. No crazy "US" constants to convert values between different units. Throw your clutter in the bin and welcome the 21st century with simple, logical and straightforward SI units on the ground, air, sea or space..

[@EarlofBusterbrook]

@@mikestirewalt5193 Do you fly? Everybody uses knots for airplanes too. Why do you think you're the center of the world? Was this plane made in the US? no. Are you an idiot? yes. Have you ever flown in for someone or commercially? Everybody uses metric professionally anyway. In the US and Europe.

[@ThePoker45]

Put a Turbareo. 200hp turbine in it

[@FLYINGADDICTed]

Not needed. With new EP914Ti engine with limited power it will fly 350 km/h (189 Knots). After the airframe adjustmets that will be needed it will be over 400 km/h.

[@verbonloucks6498]

May be an ultralight where you are but NOT in us of A !!

Sure, different category in different countries.

Hehe ok for the englishman: NM = KM/2 (cca) . galons = litres / 3,7
