Cockpit by Sarpanitu (Good job!). The Simple Glider is a basic glider with an amazing cockpit (credits above) with functional gears and a motor in the back for takeoff and landing. I recommend taking off at yeager since the glider takes a while to lift. After takeoff, anywhere with a strip is possible to land on. P.S - Brakes may be a little weak, adjust to your liking.

    Also true, but I want to keep the name Simple Glider. If you want, you can fiddle around with the engine and allow it to be activated with one of the buttons (1, 2, etc.)

    @BlackhattAircraft True, but I needed to put some way of getting it on and off the ground without using the final approach locations
