Cricket
I recall seeing a French lightplane, perhaps an ultra-light or homebuilt, of a very small aircraft called The Cricket.
The unique feature was twin engines mounted side by side in the nose, and a large bubble canopy.
Can anyone help by posting data and 3 views on this little gem?
I did a search, but to no avail.

Completely off-topic, but we had also the Morane-Saulnier MS-505 Criquet, derivated from the original Fieseler Storch Fi-156 (see also the MS-500) equiped with the famous Argus line engine.
See also our aviation quizz concerning the Cri-Cri.

No, It can not be registered as an Ultralight or ULM!HorsePower wrote:I forgot to mention that the Cri-Cri can be registered as an aircraft or an ultra-light.
One of the requirements is a stall speed 35 kts or less in europe.
Some data about Cri-Cri here.
