I stand corrected.

Looks like the A-22 is the microlight, and the A-22L is the light aeroplane, from the LAA's list.

However, going onto G-INFO, most of the A-22Ls are still microlights, although I found several which are light aeroplanes, despite still having a 450kg MTOW: G-CGZT is one such. What the difference between a 450kg microlight A-22L and a 450kg light aeroplane A22L is not immediately obvious to me. The LAA TADS shows 475kg MTOW for the SEP version of the A22, but that doesn't match what's on G-INFO.
