The Texas Soaring Association just had the family of a deceased glider pilot donate an L33 Solo and trailer to the club. However, there are no logbooks, which apparently the family tossed after death without knowing their importance. We need to get an appraisal for purposes of the IRS donation form 8283. Anyone have any thoughts on who we could contact who might be able and willing to sign off on the appraisal form after appropriate due diligence?

Without the logbooks the value of the glider is the sum of the scrap parts (wings, fuselage, avionics, etc.), maybe.
