Really interesting percentages, Ghengis:
As some of the manufacturers listed supply both microlight and SEP planes, it's a bit hard to tell the mix of these, but for arguments' sake, if you call those that are in doubt microlights or kits, and bundle these planes together you get a whopping 81% of the total, helis 17% and SEP only 2%....
I suspect we are seeing the almost total replacement of traditional recreational SEP planes by micros and kits.
The upside is that more pilots will be having more fun for less dinari.
