Microlights, Ultralights, Trikes, Ultralight Trikes
and Hang Gliders.
Airborne specialise in the design and manufacture of ultralights
(also called, microlights, trikes or ultralight trikes) and
hang gliders, for the serious adventure aviation enthusiast.
Airborne Microlights
Choose from a variety of aircraft including the top of the
range XT-912 Tundra with the Strut braced SST wing, the latest
and most versatile microlight in our range. Feel confident
when you fly, choose a certified aircraft. Our aircraft are
certified to Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA)
requirements. They are also approved to UK, German, French,
South African and Israeli standards and are approved through
these standards in most countries throughout the world. In
the USA they are flown in the Special Light Sport Aircraft
or Experimental Light Sport Aircraft category. Our design's
are tested to 6g positive and 3g negative. That's a massive
2500kgs+ or 5511+ pounds in load applied to the wing for the
positive test. Other test requirements include landing load,
deceleration and weld testing. The Airborne factory is a Civil
Aviation Approved facility. We use quality Rotax engines on
all Airborne models
Forest rangers from Gunung Palung National Park prepare for an air patrol in one of the Park's microlight aircraft. These aircraft are the centerpiece of a creative strategy to combat illegal logging that uses microlights to cruise over the forest, locate illegal logging operations and send in armed teams to apprehend loggers.
 By 2003, when the microlights were first used, logging in the Park had damaged 50 percent of the Park's forests and forced closure of its Cabang Panti research station. Since adoption of this new strategy, illegal logging has gone from rampant to rare. Elsewhere in Borneo, illegal logging is still at crisis levels. The Center for International Forestry Research has recently reported that 70 percent of timber flowing from Indonesia is now illegal, while the WWF has estimated that most lowland forest in Borneo will be gone by 2010.
Gunung Palung is a jewel of biodiversity. It's 90,000 hectares contain a wider range of habitats than any other protected area in Borneo, including one of the largest remaining areas of undisturbed lowland rainforest.
