Marske Aircraft

Marske Aircraft Corporation was an American aircraft design firm founded by Jim Marske (born 1938) and based in Marion, Ohio.

The company specialized in the design of tailless gliders primarily for amateur construction.

The Monarch can be built as a powered self-launching sailplane or as a pure glider, depending on whether an engine is installed.

[2][3][4][5] Marske also collaborated with US aerodynamicist John Roncz in 1992 on the design of the LAK Genesis 2 that was produced for a time in Lithuania, 27 having been completed.

The Genesis was the first production aircraft to use Graphlite carbon rods for the spars.
