Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Genesis 2 is a Standard Class competition glider that was designed by an American team led by Jerry Mercer and was produced in Lithuania. It is notable in having almost no rear fuselage. However it is not tailless because it has a small all-moving tailplane on top of the fin. The tailplane is mainly a trimmer rather than for longitudinal stability.During development it was found that carbon rods formed by the 'pultrusion' process could be used to provide a stronger spar. This technique has been applied to other LAK aircraft subsequently. The nosewheel was also made retractable and the wing washout was reduced. The production aircraft with these modifications were called 'Genesis 2' which flew in 1998. There was a breakdown in relations between the American design group and the manufacturers, and so production was stopped after 27 had been made.
