The Pegasus EDA 100 Flamingo is a Slovenian ultralight aircraft, that was under development by Pegasus d.o.o. of Branik. The Flamingo was introduced to the public at the AERO Friedrichshafen show in 2010 and was first flown late in 2013. The aircraft was intended to be supplied as a complete ready-to-fly-aircraft and was initially expected to be distributed by Fly Synthesis in Europe. [1] [2]

Design and development

The Flamingo was designed to comply with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight rules and intended as both a touring aircraft for private ownership and a trainer for flying school use. It features a cantilever low-wing, a two-seat tandem enclosed cockpit under a bubble canopy, fixed or optionally retractable tricycle landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration. [1] [2]

The aircraft is made from carbon composites. Its 8.7 m (28.5 ft) span wing has an area of 10.53 m2 (113.3 sq ft) and mounts flaps. The standard engine intended to be used for the production aircraft was the 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912ULS four-stroke powerplant, which was expected to give a cruise of 260 km/h (162 mph) for the fixed gear version and 310 km/h (193 mph) for the retractable version.
