no, 'tis a mobile snack-bar....one appendage for slicing boiled-eggs, sandwiches for the use of,,,,,,,the other for making chips(second pass needed to convert slices to sticks).


I'm fascinated by the links and pix....several look like a normal (gp A ? ) aircraft with a slightly larger wingspan, others are very definitely the archetypal sailplane with the enormousbendy wingspan (LAK, in particular)

Am I right in assuming all these Motor Gliders require the pilot to hold a full PPL with (AIUI) a TMG endorsement?
I believe the easiest licence to obtain is a pure gliding license, then comes Microlight, followed by SEP ???
