The Carlson Sparrow is a family of American, high wing, strut-braced, single engine, ultralight aircraft that was designed by Ernst W. Carlson and produced by Carlson Aircraft of East Palestine, Ohio and later Skyline Technologies of Salem, Ohio for amateur construction.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]

Design and development

First flown in 1987, the original Sparrow Ultralight is a single seater designed as an FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles compliant aircraft with an empty weight within that category's Шаблон:Convert empty weight limit, when equipped with a light enough engine. The Sparrow can also be built in the US homebuilt and light-sport aircraft categories.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]

The aircraft has a 4130 steel tube frame fuselage and a wing constructed with dual aluminium I-beam spars, with stamped aluminum wing ribs, all covered in doped fabric. The wings are supported by V-struts and jury struts. The landing gear is bungee suspended. The Sparrow has a fully enclosed cockpit design, allowing flying in cooler weather. The Sparrow was available as a kit that includes a pre-welded fuselage and quick-build wings. The power range is Шаблон:Convert and the original standard engine specified was the Шаблон:Convert Rotax 277 with the Шаблон:Convert Rotax 503 as an option, although the additional weight puts the aircraft in the US homebuilt category. Other lightweight engines employed include the Шаблон:Convert Zenoah G-25 and the Шаблон:Convert 2si 215.[1][2][3][5][6][7][8][9]

The Sparrow can be equipped with skis for winter operations. Construction times from the kit are reported to be 400–500 hours.[2]

The design was named Grand Champion at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh upon its introduction in 1987.[2]
