Importing a Glider from Canada to US
I have very recent experience.
Among the normal things (log books, all maintenance and repair records with proper approvals), make absolutely sure you have a good Certificate of Export. Talk to a Designated Airworthiness Representative for your area before you make the purchase. (DARs are listed on the FAA website ): https://www.faa.gov/other_visit/avia...RDirectory.pdf Good luck! With a little precaution it could be a great transaction.

Importing a Glider from Canada to US
Agree. About four years ago our club bought a glider in Canada. Our member who picked it up believed the pleasant Canadian who said, "Oh, you don't really need an Export Certificate of Airwothiness." Bad mistake. He spent the next six weeks disassembling & reassembling it under the watchful eye of an FAA inspector who was kind and friendly but thorough.
