Design and development The Legend 540 is a scale two-seat version of the Cessna 182, rendered in composites, instead of sheet metal.
The aircraft was designed to comply with the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight rules. It features a strut-braced high-wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit, tricycle landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration.
The aircraft is made from carbon fibre. Its span wing employs flaps. Standard engines available are the Rotax 912ULS and the Jabiru 2200 four-stroke powerplants.
