AIRCRAFT BRIEF

The VL-3 is a Czech two-seat, all-carbon low-wing ultralight, designed by Aveko of Brno and first flown on 6 June 2004; production later moved to JMB Aircraft of Chocen, which sells it today as the VL-3 Evolution with fixed or retractable gear. A VL-3 set a world two-seat ultralight speed record of 274.78 km/h in 2005, and the type is regularly billed as the fastest side-by-side ultralight. The standard engine is the 100 hp Rotax 912 ULS, with the 915 iS and 916 iS offered for higher performance. This checklist is transcribed from a VL-3B-3 flight manual, an earlier Rotax 912 ULS variant, so the sim's G3X Touch cockpit differs from the analog panel the manual describes.
