About the Margański & Mysłowski MP-02 Czajka

The MP-02 Czajka is a Polish-designed two-seat motor glider built by Margański & Mysłowski, a specialist manufacturer based in Bielsko-Biała known for high-performance sailplanes and self-launching gliders. First flown in the early 2000s, the Czajka (Polish for "lapwing") combines the soaring efficiency of a glider with the flexibility of powered flight, using a Rotax 912 ULS engine that can be retracted in flight to reduce drag. With a wingspan of nearly 17 meters and a glide ratio exceeding 30:1, it excels at cross-country soaring and training pilots in both powered and unpowered flight techniques.

The type is particularly popular in Central Europe for glider pilot training and recreational touring, offering the ability to self-launch from short grass strips and then shut down the engine to soar silently on thermals. Its lightweight composite construction and docile handling make it accessible to sport pilots, while its impressive climb rate and endurance allow serious cross-country flights. The Czajka remains a niche but respected platform in the motor glider community, valued for its blend of performance and practicality.
