Are there glider classifieds on rec.soaring yet/anymore? I have not
been able to access them since the big meltdown, so if there is a new
address for it, or any info I would appreciate being in the know, as
I'm sure many others would (in case they are as lame as me and have
not found it either).

I don't know about that butwww.wingsandwheels.comseems to have the
most extensive classifieds (U.S. and Canada).


Naturally, and I regularly comb that site with a fine tooth (my latest
W&W score was that used Dittel FSG 60M, check: http://wingsandwheels.com/page8.htm,
looks great in my panel where there was previously an ATR 720). I
also comb Craggy's used page at: http://www.craggyaero.com/used_equipment.htm
, as well as Cumulous' page at: http://www.cumulus-soaring.com/classifieds.htm
, of course I check ebay (don't be too quick to scoff, it's probably
better than you think, but does require buyer savvyness to keep from
burning yourself) and Craigslist (pfft, for what that's worth...). I
am not currently shopping for a plane (well, I'm always looking for
that $65 LS-4!), but I am ALWAYS looking for DEALS on used instruments/
equipment/etc. I also look on Barnstormers too for that matter, but
alas I have been missing the option of also combing the classifieds on
rec.soaring. That and I want to list my freshly reconditioned LX-4000
(v6.3, Western US database) where it will have folks from all over the
world checking it out. Unless someone knows the magic URL, it seems
that I may have to wait for Andy to get rec.soaring back into full
swing.
