Next question do you need a twin rating? MPL twin rating? :shock:
Don't know. There only 1 twin microlight on the register...

Think in USA they do Comm/PPL twin ratings on it. Principles are exactly the same and running costs are minimal vs conventional twin...

Monty at Kitplanes for Africa was busy developing a sort of "Drifter" lookalike. With more exiting things to do the project has allways been back burnered. Now no movement at all. Pity.

Hey Boet,
Do you know if he still has it and if so would he want to sell it?
Thanks

There are five Drifters being advertised in Oz at present ranging from $11,500 to up to $46,000. All look to be in very good condition. All prices in AUD. Even with exchange rate, freight costs & VAT looks like a bargain to me?

Super Drifter / Fisher Mk 1 - Rotax 912 - 439 hrs - $46,000
Drifter - Rotax 503 - $11,500
Drifter - floats equipped (regular undercarriage as well) - low hours - $30,000
Drifter - Rotax 503 - $17,500
Drifter - Rotax 503 - $15,000

Shout if you want more details - willing to act as agent in return for beer money!
