I bought this glider new in 1995, and enjoyed it immensily for 31 years. My wife says it’s “the best glider we ever had”. She chased me around the country for 20 years, retrieving me when I was flying "towed" gliders, but this one "always gets home" and she doesn't have to retrieve it. But, after 51 years of flying, my interest is waning and my "error rate" is increasing, so it's time to for a younger pilot have some fun. The basics: ASH26E, 1995, 4570 flight hours, 230 engine hours (runs like new), good condition overall, gel coat crazing , good XC instrumentation. Trailer: Cobra metal top, 1995, good condition. See the Details (and the OLC) for all the, well, details.
