No moisture drain hole in the spoiler enclosures. Searched for any
blog or discussion group on this subject. No joy.
Waiting to hear back from the factory for a mod or some solution
besides a hangar or wing covers.
Doesn't water get in also flying through storms and perhaps freeze as
you go high enough?
Are all 500 and 505' the same?
Not a single of the current German gliders built later than 1980 has a
drain hole in the spoiler box.
