Second of three improved, heavier production versions of the Ligeti Stratos ultralight. Designer Charles Ligeti lost his life when the first one (MK-001) crashed on its first flight on September 22, 1987. The second, MK-002, pictured, crashed when its engine lost power on take-off during test flying at Mangalore, Victoria, on July 10, 1988. Pilot seriously injured. Stratos project stopped. A third (MK-003), which is just a fibreglass shell, is displayed at Ballarat. All three production aircraft allocated ultralight registrations, since lapsed.
