Here is a link to a Sport Aviation article about the Silouette composite airplane/ motor glider from 1985.
Silhouette Motorglider
It was to be the future of cheap aviation, the Air Recreational Vehicle (ARV).
The complete kit was $8500.

What happened to this design? How many kits sold?
What happened to the entire concept of the ARV that EAA thought was the future of affordable aviation for fun.
