place ultralight aircraft that weigh 254 lbs or less, have a stall speed
not more than 24 knots, a top
speed of 55 knots, and carry no more than 5 gallons of fuel. To fly a
legal Part 103
ultralight aircraft in the United States the pilot does not require a
pilot license.
Single place aircraft weighing more than 254 lbs. in the U.S. require a
pilots license and must be built as experimental, amateur built,
homebuilt aircraft. These include weight shift aircraft, more commonly
known as trikes, powered parachutes, and powered para-gliders.
Single place ultralights in Canada can weigh up to 1200 lbs. and an
ultralight pilots license is required to fly them. |

Once you are in the cockpit of the FP-505, you can’t wait to get
into the air. In a short distance of 150 feet you are air-borne and
climbing at 800 feet per minute.
With the wings above you, the
visibility is excellent, and you’re rewarded with a clear view of
what’s around and below you.
Even at the slowest speed, the FP-505
maintains the flight characteristics that make for safe, enjoyable
flying. Optional brakes assist in shorter take-off and landing
rolls.
This affordable light plane combines two of the most coveted
virtues for flying purists: a high wing and an open cock-pit.

The pylon-mounted high wing leaves the cockpit essentially
unenclosed, offering the pilot spectacular visibility and the
freedom of an open cockpit design. Fueled by a 40 horsepower Rotax,
the compact FP-505 delivers plenty of go once you get up.
Shock-absorbing gear and geodetic construction contribute to a
sturdy aircraft in an extremely affordable price range.
The Fisher Flying Products FP 505 has been in production since 1984. The craft uses all wood geodetic
construction covered in standard aircraft covering materials. Standard features include
and open cockpit, removable wings, large pneumatic tires, a steerable tail wheel, 5 gallon
fuel tank, fiberglass cowl and full scale plans.
Options include plans, various
engines, quick built kit options, brakes, electric start, and wheel pants. A video
and info pack construction videos and a newsletter are also
available.
