Get Sporty : Indian Air Force pilots travel India in a Microlight Aircraft
Ever wanted to travel around India in a small microlight aircraft at the height of 500 ft? Well two pilots from the Indian Air Force have been lucky enough to see this wonderful country in a matter of 21 days! Here's a link to their full storyThe pilots did this feat in an Ultralight X-Air microlight manufactured by an Indian company -Raj Hamsa. When I first hit upon this company's website, I spent days dreaming of buying their microlights-one day..I am still dreaming:).
This company was founded by Joel Koechlin in 1980 and of all people JRD Tata supported it morally and financially, in its formative years.Today Raj Hamsa has sold more than 1000 microlights the world over. The microlights manufactured by Raj Hamsa are known to be not just sturdy, but also good value for money. So if any of you dream of owning an aircraft of your own, order one through their web site today!
Best of luck to Raj Hamsa and the brave Indian Air force pilots. And if you fly by where I am, stop by for a cup of tea- after all you only need about 275 mtrs of strip to land your microlight!
