This video is about Shark, the most capable full composite ultralight airplane with retractable gear, smaller wing and variable-pitch propeller. It is a conventionally laid out, single engine, low wing light aircraft which seats two in tandem. It was first flown on 19 August 2009 and is built in both Slovakia and the Czech Republic by Shark.Aero. https://www.shark.aero
In 2021 a 19-year-old British-Belgian pilot named Zara Rutherford flew this aircraft around-the-world solo. Rutherford set a record for the youngest woman in history to carry out this historic flight. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8UDQwrFte0NjHPdoEJ_voQ
Shark UL airplanes are presently competing for world speed records and are aiming to reach the ULA speed limit in the near future.
