Gliders by definition.. are gravity driven, towed to operating altitude by a plane and disconnected. Their aerodynamics/ efficiency allows them to use thermal currents and up draft to glide for miles/100+miles. Their main attraction is there is no motor noise, closest thing other than a hang glider(but faster) to being a bird.
