PRICE REDUCED!!!

WILL CONSIDER SALE OF 33-50% SHARE IN CUMBERLAND, MD

Self-launching soaring freedom with over 50:1 L/D!  This comfortable, smooth-flying ship was multiple OLC regional champion.  Many 1,000+ km flights, 500+ km triangles, and flights to 18k feet. This has been a great bird; I'd keep it except I'm moving on to a big 2-seater.

Fully equipped and ready to fly with low engine hours. Current maintenance contract with DG. All A/D’s completed, fresh annual. Engine starts easily and pulls well, even fully ballasted and at high density altitudes (e.g. Parowan, Salida, Moriarty).  Strong climber and runs well at 90kts when fully ballasted.

Original gelcoat in good condition.  Freshly touched up and polished by Eastern Sailplane 12/2020. Wings 8/10 with minor crazing.  Fuselage 6/10 with a little more crazing than wings.
