See? They probably decided that they need to sell a couple of them to
survive. BTW, the Antares flies sweetly as glider, as I hear from a
friend who can afford one. And isn't *that* the main criteria for a
glider?


A glider that flies sweetly is a joy, but that criteria is pretty much
irrelevant if you can't afford to fly it...


Which was exactly my point.

Be like me, buy a 1-26.

You won't have more fun in anything else -- you'll just temporarily fool
yourself into thinking you've become a better pilot simply by shredding
your checkbook.
