Regulation of ultralight aircraft in the United States is covered by the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 14 (Federal Aviation Regulations), Part 103, or 14 CFR Part 103, which defines an "ultralight" as a vehicle that: has only one seat [1] [2] Is used only for recreational or sport flying [1] [2]
The aircraft is made from bolted-together aluminum tubing, with its flying surfaces covered in doped aircraft fabric. Its 33.00 ft (10.1 m) span wing has a wing area of 220.0 sq ft (20.44 m 2). The Hornet has the largest wing area and lightest wing loading of any ultralight of its period.
The unusual feature was that the aircraft lacked any internal room for a pilot who had to fly it lying prone atop the fuselage. [1] [2] Only a prototype registration NX90840 was built, and the type did not enter production. The prototype was destroyed when the original San Diego Air and Space Museum burned down in 1978. [2]
