Owners of all Glasair Aviation aircraft are now united under one builders and owners association: the Glasair Aircraft Owners Association. The expanded group includes the low-wing Glasair models and the high-wing GlaStar and Sportsman, whether built from a kit or in the Two Weeks to Taxi program at the manufacturer’s facility in Arlington, WA.
The Glasair is an all-composite fast airplane that frequently makes headlines at the Reno Air Races, while the Sportsman and GlaStar have a folding metal wing, a steel cage and composite fuselage and are well-suited for back-country strips as well as floats and cross country flying.
