Peak Aerospace Me 109 UL

Mecklenburger Ultraleicht Flugzeugbau Christian Engelen Me 109

Classic Planes GmbH Me 109

The first 109 flew well, but was not particularly agile. Thus Bek began to build the first form for a plastic 109. Soon finished the first 109 from that form first flew in 1991. The second aircraft, registered D-MYBB, first flew in 1992, but was lost in an accident that same year. Bek's third prototype, D-MNBP, was flown in about 1994 and resulted in some kits being sold.

The Messerschmitt BF 109 is certified as an ultralight aircraft, after the BfU 84 - LTA UL 2003. From the 1992 form, the new series had its first flight on 17 November 2006, after extensive revision.

The Peak Me 109 microlight Messerschmitt is now available either as a microlight or an experimental kit.

The BF 109 UL is a single-seat GRP low-wing aircraft with one piece wing, and tail wheel landing gear. The retractable main landing gear has a steerable tail wheel. Parachute: BRS 5 UL 1050 Softpack.

The Peak Aerospace Me 109R was originally produced by Peak Aerospace, Mecklenburger Ultraleicht Flugzeugbau Christian Engelen and then by Classic Planes GmbH of Pasewalk.

Bek flew a homebuilt category version of the Me 109 in 1996, powered by a Hirth F30 and later a Subaru automotive conversion, which became the prototype of the Me 109R kit aircraft. Bek then sold the company and the new owner ceased development of the Me 109. In 2003 Christian Engelen purchased the project and continued work on the aircraft, officially re-launching it in 2004. Since then production has continued on a demand basis.

The production version, the Me 109R is made from composites. Standard engines available include the 64 hp (48 kW) Rotax 582 two-stroke, the 70 hp (52 kW) Weber Motor MPE 750 and the 80 hp (60 kW) D-Motor LF26 four-stroke powerplants. The unit cost, assembled, was €40,990 in 2015.
