The ultralight (which could be produced as a kit) is a powered flying machine weighing less than 150kg empty with one or two seats (for training). They may be operated in a designated Air Park area only. A kitplane (Malaysian DCA definition) is a homebuilt plane, built from plans or a manufactured kit. The max authorised for a kitplane may not exced 750 kg. For full details, see AIC 5/97 under Rules & Regulations.
