The Air Creation GT and Clipper are a series of French two-seat flying wing ultralight trikes that was designed and produced by Air Creation.〔Cliche, Andre: ''Ultralight Aircraft Shopper's Guide'' 8th Edition, page C-3. Cybair Limited Publishing, 2001. ISBN 0-9680628-1-4〕 ==Design and development== The GT series features a cable-braced hang glider-style high-wing, weight-shift controls, a tandem-seat, open cockpit, tricycle landing gear and a single engine in pusher configuration.〔 The aircraft is made from bolted-together aluminum tubing, with its double-surface wing covered in Trilam sailcloth. Its area wing is supported by a single tube-type kingpost and uses an "A" frame control bar. A variety of wings and engines has been fitted to the GT carriage, to form new variants.〔 When equipped with a cockpit fairing, the aircraft is called the Clipper.〔Bertrand, Noel; Rene Coulon; et al: ''World Directory of Leisure Aviation 2003-04'', pages 91-92.
