Future Club Training Gliders

The one redeeming quality of the 2-33 "Dragmaster" is that it laughs
at anything roughly resembling a landing.
However I suspect there could be a substantial amount of retraining required
to fly other more slippery ships...

The PW-6 has been around for a while. Perhaps it is a decent trainer?
Fine to fly but allegedly somewhat delicate.
Ka13 is a lovely glider to fly, but getting old.
Lots around, cheap, the largest club in the UK has a fleet of them for it's
primary trainers, now (I think) all with the nose wheel mod which is far
safer than a skid for a messed-up landing.

DG500 isn't bad, not sure about maintenance.
Lovely to fly but not a primary trainer.

AS-K21 gets my vote for this job. Comfortable, sturdy, reasonable
handling. Available new or used. Great support.

Agreed.
