I understand that the newer production Sailplanes are lighter in weight. My question is... what year or Production number did they become less weight? Not to Pry but could anybody share their thoughts about the price of a new one with average components and a trailer. I have never purchased a new...

I know the comparison of ASH 26 VS DG 800's has been done, but now that DG has come out with a DG 808C I was wondering what self launching guys think? The new 808C allows wing loading of up to 10.2 Lbs compared to 9.2 for the ASH 26? The new DG also has NOAH exit assist and stall warning plus...

I have a semi empty metal Cobra trailer for immediate sale. Includes freshly painted 18 meter tips (poly u) along with ground handling equip, and various other things you would leave in the trailer while up soaring. I will entertain all offers. You could save some money on that new glider by...

Hi, Does anyone perhaps have an electronic version of an ASH-25 flight manual, or know where I might find one? I'm renting one for a week in December (South African summer). Flying it will be a new experience for me, and I'd like to be as prepared as possible. I found one electronic version by...

ASH-25E - Rotax 275 Having flown some of them, I noticed a couple of recurrent problems: 1. Actuator cannot start to lift the engine out of its well. The usefull lever to start moving is short... Manually opening the hatch helps. Door sandows are original. Battery voltage is OK (a car...

Hi, I am considering an upgrade for my ASW-20 and would like to know more about the ASH-26E. I am interested in every aspect of the glider (comfort, maintenance, ease of operation, etc) and mainly about performance as a glider. I have some time on the ASW-27. From my research, it seems that the...

s/n 26185 (2001) I love the ship, but an ASW-27 will better fit my flying style, so a trade could be the best deal for both of us. Posted on Wings & Wheels: http://www.wingsandwheels.com/want-ads10.htm 996 hours with 65 hours on the engine. One owner, no damage history. Metal Cobra trailer. 302,...

Near new, see Wings & Wheels page 10. Price reduced from $150,000 to $140,000. This economy sucks, nobody's buying toys! JJ

Anyone know whats up with the ASH-30? Surprised not to see one at Uvalde... Thanks, 2C

I know I’m just learning about all this but reading this about the ASH 25 really made me pause. (I have a lot of ours on GA aircraft and moving into gliders.) http://gliding.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Flying%20ASH25%20by%20Stan%20Nelson.pdf «...The consequence of moving the stick...

Hi all, I recently bought an ASH25M, which still got the Technoflug prop. Now many PPL advice to go for the AS prop. I asked Schleicher and Rolf went like: "At least we can repair it, if it has a crack or so." - But I could not manage to get information about performance. Anyone switched to the...

Hi Has anyone experienced an engine extraction problem on an ASH26E ? The Ilec does not seem to switch on, and when you push the 15A breaker in the cockpit you hear a "clonck" noise in the engine bay (could not identify where this is coming from exactly). Any tips on how to proceed ? - Try to feed...

Does anyone have a PDF or DXF or cad file for an ASH26E panel?

Hi, I'm considering buying an ASH26 which has had a major wing repair. If there are any owners here I would be very grateful if they could share the frequencies quoted in their delivery documentation Andy Smith (ASW28 owner flying at Bicester in the UK)
