Looking at purchasing my first glider. The 2-22 appeals to me as it fits my budget and my goals of just easy fun and giving rides. Any advice?

In the early 90's, I flew that same 49Z during my training and winch sign-off. The 2-22's were well-built (tubular metal frame) and that one had an upgrade to the tail, I believe. The back seat is a bit cramped, but one person can haul it on the ground using the nose "handle". Not sexy, and no winglets, but fun to fly. Make sure you get an annual inspection and when you trade up it shouldn't have depreciated much if any.
