Cannot Hover is not compatible with either form of Gliding because it would be double-dipping. Indeed, you can't hover when you glide.

And yes, while the descriptions of Gliding and Controlled Gliding do not specify you can't hover with those Limitations, please see p. B398. With either form of Gliding, you must move at least 1/4 of your top air speed each turn. Otherwise, you go into a stall and start falling.

I studied the GURPS rules for unpowered flight for "A Whisper in the Sky", Pyramid #3/39.
