Default Renting a sailplane

I'm a sensible pilot with a good record and good money
to spend.


Anyone considering this offer should bear in mind that this will likely
put you into the commercial operator category and you should be fully
cognizant of all FARs and insurance issues before proceeding. Your
glider will probably need a type certificate (not experimental), a 100
hour inspection, and your insurance will likely be null and void (the
renter could obtain A/C renters insurance). And don't assume that this
is an inclusive list because I am not a commercial operator (you could
always call one for advice).
