Ultravia Pelican PL

PlaneTime is excited to offer this 2004 Ultravia Pelican PL Experimental Aircraft which is in excellent condition. The Ultravia Pelican is the name given to two series of high-wing single-engine tractor configuration ultralight aircraft that were designed by Jean Rene Lepage and produced in kit form for amateur construction by Ultravia Aero International of Mascouche Quebec and later Gatineau Quebec. The single-seat Le Pelican production ran from 1983 to 1985 with about 100 kits delivered. Due to demand for two-seaters Lepage designed a new "clean-sheet" aircraft in 1984 which retained the same name as the earlier single-seater. The two-seat Pelican Club and its derivatives were built in large numbers with more than 700 flying by 2003. The original Pelican Club has a fibreglass fuselage and aluminum frame wings with aircraft fabric covering. The wings were later made all-metal and this model became the Pelican PL. The PL was available from the factory equipped with a 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912ULS or a 115 hp (86 kW) Rotax 914 turbocharged engine. Options included tricycle or conventional landing gear. This particular aircraft was build over a five year period with a focus quality and comfort.
