When it was available the Pulsar was supplied as a ready-to-fly aircraft and as a kitplane for amateur construction. The aircraft was later produced by Skystar Aircraft of Nampa, Idaho and then by Pulsar Aircraft of El Monte, California. Each subsequent manufacturer introduced new variants. The Pulsar was a development of the Star-Lite Aircraft Star Lite and features a cantilever low-wing, a two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration open cockpit under a bubble canopy, fixed tricycle landing gear or optionally conventional landing gear with wheel pants and a single engine in tractor configuration. In March 2014 130 examples were registered in the United States with the Federal Aviation Administration, although a total of 195 had been registered at one time. In March 2014 five were registered with Transport Canada and 29 with the CAA in the United Kingdom. For details of design and development, and variants, click here.
