this British aerobatic jet sailplane was initiated in 2012;

The project was initiated in August 2012 after a phone talk between Andrey Platygin (Advanced Design Alliance)
and Eugene Zakharenkov (SnapRoll Aero) with a goal to build the fastest in the world unlimited aerobatics self-
launching glider.The glider features carbon fiber composite structures, symmetrical wing airfoil, jet engine H250
of Jetbeetle,60l fuel capacity.

The program was located in Sebastian, FL, where SnapRoll Aero has its office, not Britain. The program never moved forward for the same reason most new aircraft programs don't, money. By the way, Andrey is a very good designer. I was introduced to him by Taras Rud, the owner of Rud Aero, a AirBoss client.

Are you getting confused with the Glowfly? Similar timeframe, similar concept, similar size and I understand prototype built but never flown. The project reported that it was relocating from Northampton (UK) to California but it just disappeared.

Thank you Zootycoon,

and we can say a UK/USA design ?.

The ADA Jet has no relationship with GlowFly. The ADA Jet is a USA program designed by a Ukraine engineer.
