LiteFlite is a manufacturer of ultra light aircraft and hang gliding accessories.
The main product from the LiteFlite stable is the Dragonfly, an ultra light aircraft
most commonly used for towing hang gliders into the air. The Dragonfly has been
in production since 1990 with approximately 100 aircraft being made, and is internationally
recognised for its slow flying speed and great manoeuvrability.
 Due to the slow
flying speed, the Dragonfly is the world’s most favoured hang gliding towing aircraft
and has been sold to 12 different countries. As its origin comes from the Australian
bush, where most national hang gliding competitions are held, the Dragonfly has
also be dubbed the “Great Australian Bush Plane”.
The flying characteristics which
have made the Dragonfly so popular in hang gliding has also allowed it to become
a very useful stock management tool on large properties in Australia. The Dragonfly
provides a low cost form of aviation which can be flown almost anywhere and is really
easy to learn. It’s a great tool for quickly checking areas within a property, or
even herding stock.
If you don't own a large property and not interested in towing hang gliders, it
doesn't matter, because the LiteFlite Dragonfly is simply good fun to fly.
It is a two seater with dual controls, so it's great fun to buz around the countryside
with a friend.
In conjunction to the Dragonfly, LiteFlite also manufacture a range
of products used in hang gliding towing. These include a highly designed and well
manufactured tandem hang gliding wheels which allow the pilot and passenger to safely
launch and land. A tow rope release mechanism is also manufactured.
We hope you
enjoy our website and we look forward to seeing you in the air soon.
