![]() I've spent the last year or so keeping an eye out for a first glider... something like a 1-34, etc. No rush you know, just looking. But then I started taking my 9yr old daughter flying with me, and she absolutely LOVES it! She has been asking me every day when we are going up in the glider again.. and my wife caught wind of this and said "Well, you are going to be 40 this year. Why don't you spend our tax return on a glider so you can get Katie into flying?" So this has thrown me one heck of a curve ball. I would love to encourage her to take up flying by having her fly with me often. I could see where this could have a big effect on the rest of her life... So, if I were looking for a good safe glider, able to be disassembled by 2 or 3 people without breaking out backs in the process, would it exist for $10K USD? $13K? I don't have $20K to spend unfortunately. I've seen L13's for as low as $6K USD, but they are all currently grounded, and those wings look heavy! But then, I could leave it tied down at the gliderport which would be nice. Any advice appreciated, thanks in advance. Tom |
