About the Pulsar XP
The Pulsar PULSAR XP is an American ultralight and homebuilt aircraft designed by Mark Brown. Produced by several companies over its lifecycle, it is a low-wing monoplane featuring a side-by-side seating configuration under a bubble canopy, composite airframe construction, and a single engine in a tractor layout. It suits builders and pilots looking for a capable kitplane.
The design evolved from an earlier ultralight concept and can be equipped with either tricycle or conventional landing gear. Over the years, numerous examples have been registered with civil aviation authorities across different countries, supplied either as ready-to-fly aircraft or as construction kits requiring hundreds of hours to assemble.
