The CVT M-300 was a single-seat glider designed and built in Italy from Template:Avyear.
Development
Designed by Alberto Morelli this single seat high performance standard class glider was intended for competition flying, record breaking and club use. Advanced constructional techniques used for the, plywood skinned, Aluminium Alloy sparred, M-300 wings ensured accurate surfaces with high quality surface finish. The fuselage was conventionally built using wooden frames, plywood skinning with a glass fibre nose cone, and integral swept fin which supported the narrow chord all-flying tailplane. Two prototypes were built with the first flight taking place in April 1968.
