The Militi M.B.1 is an Italian single-seat flying-boat glider designed and built by Bruno Militi.[1]
Militi started to build his design for a flying-boat glider in October 1964 and it first flew on 13 August 1967.[1] The M.B.1 is a parasol-wing monoplane with a two-step hull and a fuselage of aluminium alloy, wood and fibreglass.[1] The mixed construction wing is supported by two N-struts in the centre and a vee-strut outboard on each side, it has plain ailerons but no flaps.[1] The pilot has an open cockpit with a small windscreen.[1] From 1969 Militi developed a powered version as the M.B.2 Leonardo which first flew in 1970.[1]
