Ask the estate if they'll donate the glider to the club or sell it at
reduced price to the club or some of the members.Â* This would help out
the younger members and might have the benefit of a tax break to the estate.

Obtain the Trailer Title / Bill of Sale with the VIN or some factory number off of the trailer data plate. Getting a trailer tag is often an afterthought after the purchase and can be a paperwork hassle. May require an inspection and weighing in some states. The trailer tag and registration paper must match when the highway patrol stops you, as having one tag for 3 trailers is over, at least in Texas. Ask me how I know!

You can have the estate donate the glider to Treasure Coast Soaring Club in Vero Beach, Florida. We have a youth program that teaches youth at NO COST! You hopefully will see the most beautiful donated youth project that was completely rebuilt with the help of our youth program. The estate must provide heir documentation to complete the registration with the FAA. We can have the ship appraised and give the donor a legal deduction for the tax deduction. It's all about making sure the next generation enjoys what we all have enjoyed through our glider experiences. Bob
