What are the advantages of having a DG service contact?
Can you live without one?
Is ones life easier when you have one?

Thanks for all the answers. I am not prone to jump into accusing DG of blackmail they have had their reasons which I think I can understand.

More of concern is quality of support etc.

Anyway, thanks for opinions.

My experience when bringing an LS-6 back from the dead was that the service was very good and quite helpful. The extra cost of the service contract when I bought the new canopy was somewhat painful. What I really did not like was that in January, one month after I bought the canopy and paid the fee, they expected the repeat fee when I needed to buy a gas spring.
If you break your ship, the fee added to your parts order will be another cost the insurance company has to pay.
I would not stay away from a really good glider because of this.
FWIW
