Jet Glider
In reference to Bill Collum's article in Soaring Magazine (Apr. 2008)
does anyone know what FAA regulations apply to retrofitting a non-
motorized glider with a turbine engine similar to the HPH-304?
Is a special turbine Type certification needed?
If there are two engines, is it then charactorized as a twin engine?
Are there extra certifications nessary for the pilot?
Is insurance readily available for a modified non-motorized glider as
a twin engine turbine?
