A shape shifting cilvilian show glider. Designed for air shows and displays, this aircraft uses a jet to take off from land or water and then glide around. Just when the crowd is getting used to the aircraft, the pilot VTOLs up to shift the aircraft to its alternate form. The aircraft is very agile in both of its forms and glides well in both of its forms. For the first time, this aircraft can also land in both of its forms as well.
