The Glidair is a single-seat touring motorglider that Brad Hill has been working on for the past few years. Brad and I (mostly Brad) are developing a version of the Glidair that uses the wings and also vertical and horizontal tail of the HP-24. We're thinking that the engine will be something on the order of a Rotax 503 through 582, or some other 2- or 4-stroke equivalent.
