I know the old adage of 'If you have to ask, you can't afford it' applies but I am still curious how many monetary units this engineering marvel from the Fatherland will set me back. Anybody knows?

And of course that adage is untrue, can we stop perpetuating it. Only a fool buys something without knowing the cost. I have purchased nine aircraft in my life, including a WWII fighter..., I have asked the price each time, then I have asked the real coast. Look at a current gen glider price list then add 50-75K for extras, trailer, instruments...

Thanks for sharing that great wisdom - now I know exactly how much a S12 lists for! ;-)
