Contest-ready Ventus 2cxT, built 2007, with long-lasting PU paint finish (not gel coat) in excellent condition. One of the best-handling 18m gliders ever built. Delightful to fly and a top performer. Holds multiple state records, including first declared 1000 km FAI triangle in Colorado. Great as a first flapped glider due to easy handling and intuitive flap/trim design. Comfortable safety cockpit fits bigger pilots without feeling loose for those less large. Featured in many YouTube videos on ChessInTheAir. 1345 hours total time, only 11 hours on Solo sustainer engine. Aluminum Cobra trailer in great condition makes rigging easy. Maximum take-off weight on par with Ventus 3, JS1, or AS33. 98% of the performance of the current generation of top 18m gliders for less than half the investment. Easy to convert into electric self-launcher if so desired at any point in the future. More information about the glider, the instrumentation, and the trailer is on https://chessintheair.com/ventus2cxt/
