It’s a Belgian design that’s why :LOL:
The Aviasud Mistral was designed by two Belgian engineers, Francois Goethals and Bernard d'Otreppe.
The prototype first flew in May 1985 and the aircraft entered production with AviaSud engineering in Fréjus with the first production model having its maiden flight in February 1986.Aviasud has built more than 200 Mistrals, it has also been built by Ultraleger Industria Aeronáutica Ltda in Brasil.
On May 4, 1987, an Aviasud Mistral was flown to the geographic North Pole by Nicolas Hulot, a world first for this type of aircraft.

One of the ULM who made me dream when I was a teenager. The others were Aviasud Sirocco , Butterfly and finally Aérolite Falcon
All except the Falcon were Belgian and the European importer for the Falcon was Belgian. At the time ultralight was seen like a big opportunity to develop popular aviation in Belgium and some industries. Sadly the authorities were not open minded and continued to invest in dying heavy industries.
 
The Falcon & Butterfly look great.
The Butterfly is a crazy looking tiny aircraft - wings based on the Flying Fle - luv them. It's not surprising that they made you dream.
Thanks for sharing the info.
