hummel h5 with 21 gal capacity, 85hp, and sub $18k is a steal! Excalibur would be the 2 seater choice of these

[@AviationFederation]

Indeed, the Hummel H5 with its 21-gallon fuel capacity, 85 horsepower engine, and affordable price is an excellent option, although the full kit can now go as high as over $25K. Its combination of features and affordability make it an attractive choice for those looking to get into aviation on a budget. The Excalibur, on the other hand, as a two-seater option provides additional versatility for flying with a companion. Both aircraft offer great value and can provide enjoyable flying experiences.

Remeber a passenger and pilot makes 2😁😁 . The Sonex or H5 for me . They actualy look like aircraft to me.

[@scottrichmond3400]

Right I was VERY confused when he said a pilot or a passenger, well you ALWAYS need a pilot.... So did he mean just 1 person being the pilot or a pilot AND A PASSENGER. which after reading your comment I'm guessing and hoping it's 2 people total: 1 pilot AND 1 passenger

Unfortunately, the Belite factory was destroyed in a fire in 2019 and the company ceased operating. Not sure if/how you can obtain parts for repair.

[@AviationFederation]

That's quite unfortunate!

[@jakleo337]

The owner is still in business as an avionics maker. Small, affordable, light weight, digital instruments.

The Exalibur is copy of the successful Challenger 2 designed by Dave Goulet.

[@AviationFederation]

That's an interesting observation! The Excalibur and the Challenger 2 may indeed share some similarities in design. It's not uncommon for aircraft designers to draw inspiration from successful aircraft models and incorporate similar features into their own designs. Whether it's a direct copy or simply influenced by the Challenger 2, the Excalibur still has its own merits and appeal as an aircraft.

[@stevec1192]

No mention of RANGE! Bit of an oversight.

[@cirrus6980]

The Excalibur is a Challenger 2

[@AviationFederation]

The Challenger 2, designed by Dave Goulet, is indeed a popular and well-regarded kit aircraft. If the Excalibur shares similarities with the Challenger 2, it could be a testament to the quality and design of the Challenger series. Is there anything specific about the Excalibur or the Challenger 2 that stands out to you as particularly impressive or noteworthy?

The one without radio and don't need license and don't need rules.?

[@AviationFederation]

For those requirements, your best bet would be ultralight experimental planes.

[@leecowell8165]

For those you gotta set your sights down a notch to part 103 ultralights. for 2 seaters you need a traditional pilot's license but for more range and speed you need at least a sport license which means yeah, medical, radio capabilities, stuff like that. Most ultralights have tiny motors not much over 40 hp, single cylinder, 2 cycle engines. most of them don't sport electric start either.

Get a trike.

[@AviationFederation]

Absolutely, a trike configuration is a great option for those simply looking for recreational flying or exploring the skies on a budget. Enjoy your flights!
