Since you guys are posting all these flying bricks and calling them gliders, don't forget Buzz Lightyear. Falling with style! Dude, he has a 100% payload capacity!

My wife painted this Holverson Designs Silver Hawk with watercolor markers. It had a glide weight of 0.4 oz. and after power pod release it stayed up for 85 seconds on it's maiden flight. Not bad for a brick.

I already posted my recently finished Tercel.
Also, I just bought two Manta 2 gliders (just the gliders) to try out. Others recently built... Semroc Hawk Centuri Mini Dactyl Squirrel Works Dogfight Estes Eagle Boost Glider Semroc Orbital Transport Estes Scissor Wing Transport (Original) |

If you use the included rubber bands to flaunch the Manta gliders, only pull the glider back a short distance. It will climb much higher and glide for a longer time then if you pull the glider back all the way. This will cause the glider to loop. John Boren |

The first rocket I flew (The first rocket I built was an Estes Astron Scout) was an Estes Falcon B/G. Used an 1/2A6-2 motor. Darn thing worked! I still have it.
I built an original Estes Orbital Transport back in 1972. It is now rather worn but I will still fly it every once in a while. It last flew at NARAM-52. Great flight. I finished an original Estes Scissor Wing Transport. Never flew it. I have built/flown several more gliders but these three I happen to have some pictures.
