Thank you again for your advise. Any more thoughts on the LS4? Any concerns with the age? The LS 4 is one of the most docile gliders I've ever flown. In some European clubs it's even used as first solo training glider! The age is no factor, the shape it's in is. Later LS4s have authomatic hook ups, early ones don't, this should be reflected in the price. The LS 4 has two negative points: One is the bad surface quality. Depending on the use, they need a refinish rather soon. (In a club environment after 15 years or so.) So take a careful look. The second is the wheel brake. The wheel brake is a joke. This can be a problem if you have to outland in a short field. Stefan
