WEFT is AircraftIQ's four-point recognition method — how it works.
Spot it by:
- High-wing monoplane with wings based on the Lancair ES
- Retractable tricycle landing gear from the Lancair IV
- Steel-tube fuselage centre section with composite airframe
Look for a composite high-wing homebuilt utility aircraft with retractable tricycle gear and a single engine.
