The Miller WM-2 was a single-seat sport aircraft designed in the United States in the early 1970s and marketed for home building. Although primarily a powered aircraft the WM-2's high aspect-ratio wings enabled the pilot to stop the engine and soar on thermals as with a sailplane (designer W. Terry Miller's previous projects had been sailplanes). It was a generally conventional low-wing cantilever monoplane with a cockpit enclosed by a bubble canopy.
