How
to Identify the Ultralight
What
things help you
recognize your family car when you see it? How can you recognize
whose ultralight you see in Operation Migration
photos? Here are some ways to know who is flying the ultralight:
1.
Color of the Wing's Leading Edge. (Chris's is
green. Brooke's is red. Richard's is orange. Joe's is yellow.)
2.
"N" Number (USA License Number) on the Wing Post. (Ultralight
pilots and planes must be licensed, just like road drivers and
vehicles. These numbers go with the photos and names in the same
positions on this page.)
3. The Pilot's Name on the Body of the Trike
Journal
Questions/Activities
- Why
do you think ultralights
have identifiers on them? Tell the "N" number and wing color for each
of the pilots.
- Why
do you think the Operation Migration ultralights are also registered
in Canada? What are those letters for each pilot? What do they
stand
for?
Where do they appear?
You'll find out when you take our photo quiz: Who's
Flying These Ultralights?
- If
you wanted to be a licensed ultralight pilot, what would you need
to do?
