Mexico City is a very interesting place to visit. It has some great museums and lots of fascinating old buildings. The hotels are too expensive to stay but there are more affordable options.

Ultralight Airplanes An ultralight airplane is very different from a conventional airplane. It looks like a lawn chair with wings, weighs no more than 254 pounds, flies up to 60 miles an hour, and carries about 5 gallons of fuel. Most ultralights are sold as kits and take about 40 hours to assemble. Flying an ultralight airplane is so easy that a pilot with no experience can fly one. Accidents are rarely fatal or even serious because the ultralight lands so slowly and gently and carries very little fuel. Some models now have parachutes attached, while others have parachute packs which pilots can wear. QUESTION: According to the passage, pilots ----.?
-
Prefer to fly with ultralights rather than with regular aircraft
-
Can weigh up to 250 pounds, depending on the model of the ultralight airplane
-
Don't need s special training to fly an ultralight airplane
-
Are reluctant to put their ultralight together
