Design

The Bodacious was a project started as a Legal Eagle ultralight, but was redesigned to become an enclosed aircraft. The aircraft is a single engine, strut-braced, high wing ultralight with conventional landing gear. The aluminum spar wings use wooden ribs and fold rearward for towing or storage. The aircraft is covered with Oratex, a pre-colored covering used in model aircraft building. [1]

Operational history

The prototype Bodacious won the Reserve Grand Champion Ultralight award at the 2012 EAA AirVenture Oshkosh airshow. [2]
