1) A very light aircraft, also called sailplane without engine thrust. It needs to be lifted up by a small prop aircraft. Once it is at a sufficent altitude, the cable used for lifting up is detached from its nose and the glider flies freely. In order to maintain its altitude, glider pilots use to catch the so called lifting or ascending windstreams, usually generated by hot air moving up to clouds, and mountainous landscapes.
2)Usually told about an aircraft who has lost any thrust because of engine failure or running out of fuel.

Get the Mr Glier mug.If you haven't heard of the computer game Glider, you should read that definition before reading this one.
Glider Pro was what came after the original Glider, adding to it lots of new things, but it was essentially the same game. In Glider pro there are more room backgrounds.... you can link a switch to an object in another room.... there are LOTS more objects... etc., etc., etc. Makes building rooms/houses more fun because you have more options, but loses some of the charm of the original Glider. There is a Glider Pro for Mac OS X, but it doesn't have room editor. The one for OS 9, which does have a room editor, works on OS X machines that have a "classic" mode, but it freezes randomly for no reason.
note: Cassidy & Greene, the company that licensed Glider and Glider Pro, went bankrupt several years ago. The author, John Calhoun, has made Glider Pro available online for free, as shareware. Go to Google and search for Glider OS X, and you can download Glider Pro-- the OS X or the OS 9. As far as I know, Glider Pro is only available for the Mac.
