Part 103 Ultralight Primer practice test

Weight, fuel, speed, daylight and airspace limits for ultralight vehicles, written from the text of 14 CFR Part 103. No test required, but every ultralight pilot should know these.

These questions are our own, written from the text of 14 CFR Part 103. Part 103 has no knowledge test and no pilot certificate, so knowing these limits is on you.
