Stuck on a Sunday? Jump on GlastarNet and ask your question to hundreds of other builders. Chances are that someone will know the answer to your question and answer it fast. If time is money—and we know it is— your GSAI and GlastarNet subscription pays for itself in short order. And, GlastarNet is monitored by Glasair Aviation.

Stay Informed

In addition to our online community, the GlastarNet, GSAI publishes the GSAI Flyer quarterly for members. It is jammed full with builder tips, feature stories, and how-to articles that will make you a better Glastar/Sportsman builder and pilot.

Stuff you need to know, and information that will often make you ask “why didn’t I think of that?”

All members have access to the full-color version of the Flyer in PDF form, and “paper” subscribers get it delivered to their home or office.
