Since summer of 2005 the FBAG offers training for the private pilot on Ecolight airplanes! The dream of flight becomes thus less expensive and offers the air-minded one an ideal entrance to a possibly larger career in the Aviation.

Ecolight airplanes are particularly ecological and economic series power planes, which by using more easily built materials and pollution free fractional horsepower motors are compatible with most modern technology. They fly surely, quietly, economically.

The designation "Ecolight" was defined in 1997 by the Projektinitianten Anton Landolt and Eugen Hostettler and selected as replacement for the term "ultralight aircraft" understood politically incorrecly in Switzerland. They exhibit at least a surface loading of 20 kg/m2 and have a maximum output of 121 HP. The maximum takeoff weight (MTOM) amounts to with evacuation equipment 472,5 kg. It is even possible to drag gliders with these airplanes.
