Yes. The Xenos does meet the criteria set-forth by FAA Advisory Circular AC 21-17a defining Powered Gliders. The Xenos can be registered as an Experimental/Amateur Built aircraft and flown by pilots who hold a glider license with a self-launch glider endorsement. The Xenos can also be flown under both the Sport Pilot, and Private Pilot regulations. For more information about the definition of a Powered Glider, and the applicability of the Xenos, read our Motorglider Definition page.
