The Lucas L11 is a French ultralight aircraft that was designed by Emile Lucas. The aircraft is supplied in the form of plans for amateur construction.[1]

Design and development

The aircraft was designed to comply with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight rules. It features a cantilever low-wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit, fixed tricycle landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration.[1]

The aircraft is made from sheet aluminum with its windshield made from a piece of flat plastic to save money on construction costs. Access to the cockpit is via gull-winged doors. Its 8.40 ft (2.6 m) span wing has an area of 9.00 m2 (96.9 sq ft) and is equipped with flaps. The standard recommended engine is the 85 hp (63 kW) Jabiru 2200 four-stroke powerplant.[1]
