Schweizer Solitaire Glider Tri-blend T-Shirt

The Schweizer SGS 1-36 Solitaire is an American mid-wing, single-seat, FAI Standard Class glider designed by Ernest Schweizer and produced by the Schweizer Aircraft Corporation starting in 1982. As the last glider manufactured by Schweizer before focusing on powered aircraft and helicopters, the Solitaire holds a special place in aviation history. Designed for both high performance and reliability, it was primarily used by private owners and flying clubs. The Solitaire was notable for its innovative design, including a retractable engine, making it a self-launching glider, a feature that set it apart from its contemporaries. With its sleek design and versatility, the Solitaire became a favorite among gliding enthusiasts, offering an exhilarating flying experience. Its production run was relatively short, but it left a lasting legacy in the world of gliding, embodying the spirit of innovation and the joy of silent flight.
