"Motorbike of the sky"[edit]

"La Moto du Ciel" means "The Motorbike of the Sky", not "Motorbike of the Sky". The article ("La" ie. "The") is intentionnaly part of the model name... 195.221.114.6 (talk) 12:15, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Flying surfaces[edit]

The flying surfaces are not made of aluminium sheets but of painted Dracon canvas. The only wings leading edge are made of aluminium sheets covered with the Dracon canvas. 195.221.114.6 (talk) 12:30, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strut-braced high wings[edit]

Could precise "single strut-braced high wings". It is relatively rare, most 3-axis ultralight features double struts of wings... 195.221.114.6 (talk) 12:44, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

open cockpit under a bubble canopy[edit]

" open cockpit under a bubble canopy" sounds weird. If there is a bubble canopy, then it is not open. The "Motorbike of the Sky" basic version has no bubble canopy but a simple large windshield, but can features a complete windshield and lateral doors for the closed cockpit version. 195.221.114.6 (talk) 12:52, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks,

Standard engines[edit]

It would be interesting to precise the aircraft was initially equipped with an aircrafted Wolkswagen based HW1835 (62hp, 45kW) or VW1600 boxer (flat) 4 cylinders 4 strockes engine. 195.221.114.6 (talk) 13:34, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

We would need a reference t0 add that. - Ahunt (talk) 13:50, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
