Walkerjet Schoolboy

[1] The Schoolboy was designed as a trainer to comply with the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules as well as European regulations.

It features a paraglider-style wing, two-place accommodation and a single engine in pusher configuration with a reduction drive and a fixed pitch two-bladed wooden propeller.

The aircraft is built from a combination of bolted aluminium and 4130 steel tubing and is noted for its reinforced chassis.

The propeller cage can be dismantled for ground transport or storage.

Inflight steering is accomplished via handles that actuate the canopy brakes, creating roll and yaw.
