A microlight is a very light, very small plane, usually for one or two people. Some look like a hang-glider with a seat and a little engine; others look like a tiny ordinary aircraft. They fly low and slow compared with a jet, and they are used for fun, for training, and sometimes for looking over fields. Though actually, 'light' here means not heavy — not a lamp, and not 'not dark'. In American English the close word is often ultralight; in British English microlight is the usual name, and the legal weight limits differ from place to place. It is a hobby-and-flying word, a bit specialist. You would not use it for a toy, a drone, or a passenger jet.
