Take a look at how the Lil' Breezy is built!
Open air flying is Fun and safe!

This is the view from the pilot seat! The fairing works great!
Notice the rudder peadals and the toe brakes on each. The control stick is placed perfectly for a relaxing grip too! |
This is the Rotax 503 DCDI engine!
The rotax 503 is the most reliable Rotax engine made. It has oil injection so you never have to mix oil and fuel together! The engine varies the oil injection depending on the throttle setting. It also has dual ignition for added safety. The propeller is made by Warp Drive and is ground adjustable. It is perfectly suited to this airframe. Fuel burn at cruise is about 3 GPH! Try that in your Cessna! |

The Lil' Breezy is a "tail Dragger".
A tail dragger has the main gear forward of the CG (center of gravity). This puts the strongest gear where the action is and is best suited for rough surfaces compared to the Tricycle landing gear arrangement on other designs. Just several lessons with an experienced pilot and you too can land a tail dragger! Plus tail draggers are just cool. |
This is the airframe before assembly!
Notice the fuselage parts are aluminum and stainless steel. The wings are made from fiberglass with aluminum reinforcements. The entire airframe weighs 275 lbs. without the engine and propeller! The fact that the aircraft weighs less than other comperable designs allows it to climb faster and carry more payload!

Imagine taking your friends for the ride of a lifetime!
This is me and my friend getting back from a great flight. |
This is the tail section of the Lil' Breezy.
Notice the external braces for strength. Also, notice the elevator is counter balanced at the ends for a perfect "feel". The rudder is of generous size and is directly in the propellers slip stream giving positive directional control at any speed. This aircraft canb land in a 20 knot cross wind with ease!
