The Aerolites AeroSkiff is an American two-seat ultralight amphibian built by Aerolites Inc. [1] The aircraft is sold either completed or as a kit for home builders. [1]
The Aeroskiff is a braced high-wing monoplane powered by a Rotax 582 driving a pusher propeller. [1] It has an open cockpit for a pilot and passenger and a retractable landing gear for land or sea operation. [1] [2] [3]
The aircraft is too heavy for the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight rules. [3] Despite its repositionable landing gear, it can fit into the US light-sport aircraft classification since it is intended for operation on water.
By 1998 the company had reported that two examples were flying. [4]
