Self Launch

Motorgliders are designed with an engine which may be shut down in flight. This allows flexibility to take off and land where other methods of launch are not available. The pilot may fly greater distances to where lift is available. Due to their complexity, the pilot must be rated for gliders and endorsed for self launch.
