The Parker 2nd Ranger, also called the Parker Ranger is an American mid-wing, single-seat motor glider that was designed and constructed by W.L. Parker of La Grande, Oregon, first flying in 1967.
Parker originally built the Ranger and equipped it with a and a propeller that was unable to provide enough thrust to allow the aircraft to take-off. The engine was replaced with a Richter powerplant which rectified this defect. The engine is retractable and mounted behind the cockpit.
The aircraft is constructed from aluminium. The wing employs a laminated aluminium spar and a NACA 4418 airfoil. The Ranger is not equipped with any glidepath control devices, such as dive brakes. The landing gear is a single centreline mainwheel plus a nose-mounted second wheel to allow taxiing.
The aircraft was registered with the Federal Aviation Administration in the Experimental - amateur-built category. Only one was built.
