The Wills Wing Ultra Sport (sometimes UltraSport) is an American high-wing, single-place, hang glider that was designed and produced by Wills Wing of Santa Ana, California, introduced in 1996. Now out of production, when it was available the aircraft was supplied complete and ready-to-fly.^[1]

Design and development

The Ultra Sport was conceived as a recreational glider, capable of making cross country flights. It is made from aluminum tubing, with the double-surface wing covered in Dacron sailcloth.^[1]
