As Diamond Aircraft reintroduces its HK36 motor glider to the North American market, AVweb's Paul Bertorelli tries it out as a glider only. It's performance is impressive, making it a good choice to learn soaring.

@tstepleton Agreed. Our club's lowest performance is a pair of L23 Blanik trainers... 27:1 is at the bottom of performance. However, for a motor glider, it may be half-decent.

27:1 is not a great glide ratio even for trainers these days. The L-13 Blaník is 28:1, so on par, and an ASK 21 clocks in at 33.5:1. Certainly the venerable Schweizer 2-33 is less at 22:1, but despite its prevalence at American clubs, it really is an antique. You won't find any club operating a 2-33 that wouldn't trade it for something newer if they could.
