Air Creation Fun

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fun
Role Ultralight trike wing
National origin France
Manufacturer Air Creation
Status In production (2013)

The Air Creation Fun is a series of French single-surface ultralight trike wings, designed and produced by Air Création of Aubenas. The wing is widely used on Air Creation trikes as well as by other ultralight aircraft manufacturers.[1]

Design and development

The series are cable-braced, king post-equipped hang glider-style wings designed as docile beginner and flight training wings for single and two-place trikes. They come in two sizes, the Fun 450, named for its gross weight in kilograms and the Fun 14, named for its metric wing area.[1][2][3]

The wings are made from bolted-together aluminium tubing, with its single surface wing covered in Trilam Dacron sailcloth, with a Mylar leading edge. The wing's crosstube is exposed and is of a floating design. The Fun 14 has a 10.0 m (32.8 ft) span, an aspect ratio of 7.4:1 and uses an "A" frame weight-shift control bar. The double surface portion is 40% and the wing folds using an "umbrella" system.[1][2][3][4]

Variants

Fun 14
Wing designed for single-place trikes, with an area of 13.5 m2 (145 sq ft).[1][3]
Fun 450
Wing designed for two-place trikes, with a maximum gross weight of 450 kg (990 lb) and an area of 17.4 m2 (187 sq ft).[1]
iFun 13
Second generation trike wing, designed for the Air Creation Pixel trike.[5]
iFun 16
Second generation trike wing, designed for the Air Creation Skypper trike. Replaces the Fun 450 in the line.[6]
