Welcome to the Home of the LightHawk

This is the website for the LightHawk 15m Microlift glider.  Significant progress has been realized since the origination of this webpage. One of our goals has been not to present information about the glider that we couldn't back up with hard data.  Presently, the LightHawk is undergoing type certification coupled with efforts to place the glider in limited production.

By late fall 2008, a new website will be constructed which will reflect all of the latest progress.  In addition, the new website will be adding current availability and delivery-position details.  (Note: current availability/delivery-position inquiries should be sent to our email address below.)
