Sikorsky To Acquire Schweizer Aircraft

Schweizer continues to provide good and timely engineering support for
all Schweizer glider owners and operators - at least they have up
until now, I don't expect that will change. The prices for their parts
and engineering drawings may be considered high, but that is normal
because of the limited supply and cost to fabricate.

It is to their credit that they did not abandon the owners of the
aircraft they manufactured, on which they probably made little or no
profit.

While some may note that they have some sort of regulatory obligation
to support their aircraft, in my experience they have exceeded that
requirement a number of times. Others may have had a different
experience.

I hope support for the gliders will continue under the new ownership,
and I have no reason to believe it will change.

Heh, I hope Schweizer makes better helicopters than they did gliders.

You'll probably be able to buy the manufacturing rights for the 2-33 on
ebay soon.
