It is good to hear in the above dialog that, while the DG-100 series
isn't a rocket ship, it holds its value (especially the DG-101G) due to
its desireability for various reasons. That should make my wife
happier about the purchase of gliders in general.

Note that my DG-101G was flown in a regional contest by a past Polish
national champion (Janusz Centka) to a first place finish in Sports
Class. That says to me it isn't always the airplane, it's the
pilot...at least to a certain extent.

I am thinking of moving up to a DG-300 or DG-303 (winglets!) and wonder
if it also holds its value as the DG-101 does?
