glider definition

glider means a non-power-driven heavier-than-air aircraft, deriving its lift in flight chiefly from aerodynamic reactions on surfaces, which remain fixed under given conditions of flight;
glider means an aircraft heavier than air, similar to an airplane, but without a power plant.
