The Schultz Nucleon is an American high-wing strut-braced, single-seat glider that was designed and constructed by Arthur B.
[1][2] The Nucleon was built by Schultz in 1954 and even though the wing was strut-braced the aircraft introduced some innovative construction techniques.
The wing uses a NACA 65-415 airfoil, has full-span flaps and drooping ailerons, and is braced with a single faired strut.
[1][2][4] The aircraft was flown in the 1956 US Nationals and completed several 200 mi (322 km) cross country flights.
[2] In June 2011, 57 years after the aircraft was built, it was still on the US Federal Aviation Administration registry, listed as being subject to a sale.
