Great perception Mike and one I was hoping for; the plane very well could be a LSA - at a very affordable price. What you see is an all metal 247lb Ultralight, 447 Rotax engine, single seat with folding wings. Sadler manufactured over thirty, but it was ahead of its time where the Quicksilver MX was the state of the art craft and most ultralighters were flying first generation ultralights. Two seat ultralight trainers where just starting to become available and very few instructors around. At that time you had to teach your self to fly if you were not already a pilot. The pictured airplane is what Ultralight aviation could be today. For those who want more, then slide a variation into the Sport Plane category.

But Ed, you appear to have shown us a picture of a LSA?
