Can an Ultralight aircraft be registered as E-AB? The Belite UltraCub fits my budget now so I could be flying while saving for and building a RV-12 or similar kit. I wouldlike to build it with a larger fuel tank for a 200 mile cruise range with reserve and some additional avionics (transponder & radio). I also weigh 240 lbs. and would be pushing the weight limit for an Ultralight. I have e-mailed Belite asking if a slightly higher gross weight would be safe using the carbon wing components and am awaiting their reply. I am planning on the 1/2 VW for power. I will be flying as a new Sport Pilot. Your opinions on this would be greatly appreciated.
