In the United States, ultralight vehicles, which include ultralight aircraft, are governed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) under Part 103. Pilots of ultralights do not need a pilot's license; however, the aircraft must meet specific weight, speed, and fuel capacity limitations. Additionally, ultralights must be flown for recreational purposes and cannot carry passengers or cargo for compensation. It's important for pilots to understand safety regulations and best practices, even without formal licensing requirements.

Most states now require that the person flying the ultralight have some type of pilot's license (like Sporting) to take a passenger.
