Grob G109 Aircraft

The Grob G109 is a classic touring motorglider — an all-composite, side-by-side two-seater that cruises economically under power and soars with the engine throttled back and propeller feathered. It offers the dual personality of a cross-country tourer and a soaring sailplane, with Grob's durable composite construction. The G109B variant added a more powerful engine and revised wing.
