Kent is looking " for a first glider/airplane for a friend." I don't know if your friend is able to fly anything yet, but as the very first try, if you live in a flat area, tell him to buy an electric Zagi!
When he can handle that other planes, like those recommended by Bill Swingle, comes to mind! A Swyft would work well then, but is beyond the biginnner's building abilities, in my book at least! And though it isn't electric is very easy to launch to amazing heights, with a simple discus-style throw! Tord RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
