Three SGU2-22's listed on the link also.


Yes, but keep in mind they are projects. The one I saw had made an off
field landing by punching a hole in the roof of an apartment building.
The student got out into the attic and took the stairs down, the
istructor had to wait on the roof until someone came with a ladder.
You can probably have THAT one real cheap.

Now THAT'S a story I'd like to see in Soaring!


Well I have been told the other three were also crashed
and/or left out in the elements for too long. They may be
suitable for recovering and display, not sure if they could
be airworthy again. The will be very low cost.

Am I right to suppsoe the worse issue is exposure, making
it difficult to determine or trust the integrity of the frame?

I'm going to stop out there tonight to see the inventory of
wrecked, never finished, partly finished partly restored and ???
aircraft tonight.
