Permitted range for empty weight: 290 – 325 kg
Note: different weight limit might apply due to national regulations.

Empty plane weight is calculated and recorded in weighing record,
which is integral part of plane documentation: „RECORD about the
weighing and location of gravity for UL and LSA airplane Shark“.
Weighting must be performed and recorded when any change on the
airplane configuration is made:
