A pilot friend, of a pilot friend, who knows nothing about gliders, has
stumbled upon a Diamant 16.5 (with trailer) and is wondering the
value of said beast, assuming it’s in average condition. *I’m thinking

10 – 15K. Does that sound right? * * UFO


I'd say 10 to 15K sounds about right, I believe there is an extensive
AD on the beast that has to do with the wing spigots........yep, the
things that hold Mr. left wing onto Mr. right wing! It has a prone
pilot flying position, so try it on to see if you like that. I believe
it performs about like a Kestral.
Good luck,.
