Introduction	1975

The SH-1 tandem Glasair was an original homebuilt aircraft design by Tom Hamilton, who would use the lessons learned from this to build the Glasair series of homebuilt aircraft.

The Glasair was an all composite, low-wing tandem seat aircraft with conventional landing gear. The design was wind-tunnel tested prior to construction. The design was modified to a tricycle gear arrangement after visibility problems from the rear seat were noted on solo test flights. The design flew only three times. Hamilton's partner Ted Setzler burned the prototype before moving on to the next design.
