A simple, birdlike glider that's fun for cruising around with. Very low drag and low weight combine to make for extremely good L/D ratio.
Perfect for the Yeager -> Bandits Glider Challenge (aka Murphy -> Bandits on mobile): Start at the Yeager/Murphy Final Approach location. Glide all the way to Bandits runway and land safely.

This is an awesome glider, also I've modded it slightly and uploaded as '50,000' going the distance' which I hope is okay. If not let me know and I'll remove it!
