Wings of Freedom Phoenix 103

The Wings of Freedom Phoenix 103 is an American amateur-built ultralight aircraft that was produced by Wings of Freedom of Hubbard, Ohio. When it was available it was supplied as a kit for amateur construction.

In late 2019 the company website had been taken down and it is likely that production had ended.

Design and development
The Phoenix 103 is based on the discontinued Aero-Works Aerolite 103. With a standard empty weight of 254 lb, it was designed to comply with the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules, including the category's maximum empty weight of 254 lb. It features a strut-braced high-wing, a single-seat open cockpit with windshield, fixed tricycle landing gear and a single engine in pusher configuration.

The aircraft is made from aluminum tubing, with its flying surfaces covered in Dacron sailcloth. Its 26.8 ft span wing has an area of 124 sqft. Its recommended engine power range is 28 to 50 hp; standard engines used include the 50 hp two-stroke Hirth F-23. Construction time is estimated at 100 hours.

Operational history
By December 2011, the manufacturer reported that ten of the aircraft had been completed and flown.
