    “Easiest” of Mike Sandlin’s Ultralights to build?

    that seems to be the case.one is the mountain green sailwings vintage glider.it has the Lazair type wing with the single I beam spar and drag strut.the other one is the later super floater with similiar fuselage but the wing is different being a regular Ladder type ultralight wing.

    “Easiest” of Mike Sandlin’s Ultralights to build?

    with apology to the OP what you are suggesting is a Larry Hall/Klaus Hill super floater hang/sitz glider.Looks like the Lazair wing is a copy of the super floater.drawings for this glider can be found on the homebuilt Hang gliders group files on facebook.
