Solo Wings CC was a South African aircraft manufacturer based in Gillitts, KwaZulu-Natal. The company specialized in the design and manufacture of ultralight trikes in the form of ready-to-fly aircraft for the European Fédération Aéronautique Internationale microlight category.
The company seems to have gone out of business circa 2012 and production of its Solo Wings Aquilla design taken over by Microcrafts Africa.
The company produced two ultralight trike designs, starting with the entry-level Windlass, powered by the Rotax 503 50 hp (37 kW) twin cylinder, two-stroke, air-cooled aircraft engine in about 1987. More than 600 of this model had been delivered by 2001. In the 1990s the more sophisticated Aquilla was introduced.
