Full dual controls, optional wing fold and an honest 500lb. useful load.The name Airbike was chosen for the aircraft because it has a narrow fuselage and the pilot's feet rest on rudder pedals that are on the outside of the aircraft, in a similar manner to a motorcycle.The Tandem Airbike retains all of the single-seater's features and has a stretched fuselage to accommodate the second seat. It uses a wing of 33.8 ft (10.3 m) span with an area of 152 sq ft (14.14 sq m). The tandem-seat model was intended to be licensed as an ultralight trainer or an amateur-built aircraft.
