The single seat Cri-Cri is the smallest twin-engined aircraft in the world. It was designed in the 1970s by French aeronautical engineer Michel Colomban. It has a lightweight aluminum frame and sheet glued to Klegecell foam. It is one of the more successful homebuilt aircraft with many variations. It is a very stable aircraft and it's easy to fly. Despite its small size, it can handle cross-winds of up to 20 knots. It can continue to fly on one engine. If both engines fail, its lift-to-drag ratio is 11 to 1 and the rate of sink is about 2,5 m/s - this is comparable to most good light aircraft. Aerial acrobatics are handled with ease by experienced pilots.
