Too Heavy?

Postby Blitz » Wed Nov 24, 2021 3:56 pm

I am keen to learn to fly a trike but I am being told that I am too heavy. I am just on 100kgs in my socks.
Based In Gauteng so altitude is a factor. Any schools out there with equipment catering for those with a fuller figure? Lol
PM me If you have any ideas.

I was 110kg's when I started flying trikes. The MAUW of most trikes are 450kg's, no way you will exceed that when doing your training.

By now I hope you got your license without you having to have burned ten thousand calories a day... ##
