The DAR Solo is a Bulgarian ultralight aircraft, designed by Tony Ilieff and produced by Aeroplanes DAR, first flying in August 2008.
The aircraft is supplied as a kit for amateur construction or as a complete ready-to-fly-aircraft.
The aircraft was designed to comply with the US FAR Part 103 Ultralight Vehicles rules as well as the German 120 kg class (called the Solo 120) and deregulated 115 kg class in the United Kingdom. It features a strut-braced high wing, a single-seat open cockpit, tricycle landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration.
The aircraft is built with a composite fuselage and an aluminum wing. Its 8.97 m (29.4 ft) span wing has flaperons and employs a single strut on each side supported by an optional jury strut. The standard engine is the 28 hp (21 kW) Hirth F33 or the 50 hp (37 kW) Hirth F23 two-stroke powerplants.
The design offers combinations of three types of wings, three types of engines and four types of wheels.
