Those who have already read my posts know that I am a fan of the Aircreation Tanarg 912 ultralight trike, created by DeimoS Inc. for MSFS. I would be happy if the trike pilots among you post screenshots here in this thread. Maybe we can motivate others to fly trikes and there will be a community event at some point.
What I like about ultralight trikes is the stripped-down design and the unrestricted view, which is perfect for VFR. Of course there are cons: No night and bad weather flights, the cruising speed is often not high enough for community events.
What could be a better first picture for this thread than Aircreation’s headquarters at Aubenas airport in France (LFHO)! You can find it in Claude Roure’s addon

A few older snaps. This is a fun one, I like the little ultralights and the trike is “different” in an amusing way

Oh yes, it is really ‘different’. I think it’s one of those airplane types that you either love or hate. I fell in love with John Cillis’ freeware trike in FS2004 (speed range from 40 to 60 mph 
) and was very happy when FSX included a trike out of the box.

High altitude is not the place ultralight trikes were built for, but Mark Jackson and Eve Jackson set a record by flying over Kilimanjaro in 2008. Here are some facts about the record.
I repeated this flight in MSFS:

Suprisingly, despite the slow cruising speed of my Tanarg 912, I was able to follow yesterday’s event across the Shetland Islands. It was a great trip; thanks to @RandyWA .
To start flying the Air Creation Tanarg 912 ULS, I recommend a small airfield (812 ft) on a hill 6 miles south of Spokane: Reed (WT24).
The radio mast in the northern alignment of the short runway presents an interesting challenge.
In real life, there is a “trike school” at this location; thus, there is some realism.
Have fun!

Towards the sun with a rudimentary flying machine. Flying a weight-shift-control aircraft – that’s flying like the pioneers of yesteryear!

I just purchased this for Xbox- how do you hide the pilot in first person and is there a gps?

Sorry, I do not hide the pilot; I have not yet considered it necessary. There is no GPS; that is indeed a great pity.
