This is a weight shift, self launching, ultralight glider. It would perhaps be appropriate to compare the performance, flying position, and safety features with hang gliders.

What surprised me was how quiet the micro turbojet seemed to be. I have launched in a turbojet powered glider and the scream was much louder.

Bottom line is the pilot of this "one off" seemed to be enjoying himself. What else should anyone expect from recreational aviation?
