Glasair Aviation USA, LLC. and Advanced Aero Components “AAC” announced the sale of product line assets for the Glasair II and III models.

According to Ian Baker, AAC CEO, the company plans to rejuvenate the product line – new kits will be available in an infused carbon fiber version creating a much lighter, stronger airframe while reducing build times. In addition, existing AAC modifications will be incorporated into the aircraft.

The continued support will be stronger than ever with the soon to be introduced web store for all available Glasair parts.
