  2. European microlight federation • Started on 17 September 2003 in Maisons-Alfort, France • Membership • Full Membership of the EMF is open to all microlight associations or microlight groups within National Aero Clubs in: • each Member State of the European Union (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia) • each Member State of Applicant countries of the European Union (Bulgaria, Romania, Turkey) • each Member State of the European Economic Area (Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein) • Switzerland • Associate Membership is open to other microlighting organisations which are not eligible for Full Membership as referred above. • The purpose of the EMF is to encourage and develop in Europe microlighting as defined in the paragraph (e) of the European Aviation Safety Agency’s Annex II and including all types of aircraft. 40000 pilots

  3. Multi axis Powered delta Paramotor Autogiro Microlight ? • Simple design aircraft • 2 seats max • MTOW450 Kg for 2seats or 300 Kg for single seat(*) • (+ 5% with parachute) • Stall velocity (Vs) less than 65 Km/h (IAS) • Maximum constant power less than 80 HPS(*) • (*) Some adjustments to these limits are covered by the regulation to take account of the characteristics of autogiros and the amphibious or hydro microlights.

  4. Statistics • The pilots are, as a majority, owners of their aircraft • Microlight is the only aeronautic recreational activity to have the number of pilots and aircraft growing up.

  5. Where? When? • Only VFR (no night VFR) : “See and Avoid” • Diversity of use : local flights, medium or long range travels, gliding… • Radio + transponders in Class D or C airspaces • What we need? • maximum of free airspace • Possibility to transit in some controlled airspaces without transponder

  6. The fears • Commercial traffics want to be protected even near very small airports=> More and more Class D or C airspaces+ Difficulties to be accepted in controlled airspaces • Cumulative costs of new equipments • The damage of current lawful balance because of generalized tendency of the European institutions to adopt restricting measures, without other justification than harmonization.
