Getting it All Together in the Pacific Northwest

The New Glasair Company, which purchased production rights and tooling from the bankrupt Stoddard-Hamilton Company two years ago, has opened a new website.

The site provides comprehensive information on all of the models of aircraft currently being sold in standard and Jump Start kits.

Consumers can choose between the Glasair III, Glasair IIS RG, Glasair SII FT and the Glastar FT, TD, or FP models. Once a selection is made, there is comprehensive information on subjects like: introduction to the design, the benefits of that particular design, design features, performance and specifications for each design. There is also a synopsis on what it¹s like to build that design, kit prices, financing information, a list of options and accessories; and finally, there is a photo album of some of the 1,200 Glasairs and GlaStars that have been completed and flown.

"Really, it's everything we used to package in a printed brochure," said company president, Mikael Via. "The advantage is, it's free, it's easy to bookmark and then return to it at any time, and if desired, any part of the site or all of it can be printed out. What's most important is that the site provides enough information and guidance to be able to make an informed decision about whether or not it's time to buy and fly."

New Glasair/GlaStar is back to normal. Better, even.

Via added that New Glasair has been shipping complete Glasair/GlaStar kits for months and that the company has plans for a long-term commitment to the sport aviation movement and to Glasair/GlaStar builders.

With roots dating back to 1980, the original and revitalized Glasair companies have shipped nearly 3000 Glasair/GlaStar kits worldwide. The website has full information for contacting the factory.
