Non of the following are Micros (in the UK);

Champ, Cub, Jodel, Luscombe, Emeraude, Pioneer – 300, Sportcruiser
Wot's the UK criteria pls ?

In NZ it's 544 Kg ( 1200 lbs) - unless amphibian when it goes up to 600 Kg. but V.P. and retractable u/c permitted, but no night flying or flight over towns ( might restrict you a bit in the UK !! )

In the USA I believe the limit is 1300 lbs but only fixed gear, and they call them Light Sports Aircraft.
