ILEC SN10 free to a young soarer
I have an ILEC SN10 which I'm not using. These are fantastic units, but time has moved on and new ones are fantasticer! My clearnav blows me away every time I fly with it.
So, I'm offering my ILEC SN10 free of charge to one of the following: - An individual under 30 with an older glider (cirrus, pegasus, perhaps even ventus 1 or discus 1) trying to get into competitive flying or longer distance flying. I want to stick with cheaper gliders as if you have the moolah for an ASG29 you don't need my help! - A club with a cross country machine but no good onboard GPS, and some sort of program to encourage younger pilots. The aircraft must already be equipped with dual batteries as I don't want it to sit around for a decade while the club gets around to putting electricals in the glider. - Whoever takes it must give me a commitment to putting the computer in THIS YEAR. Either way, if there's someone out there that could benefit from a free computer, please let me know. I can't think of anyone at my club that will benefit but first dibs goes to anyone at Harris Hill including HH club gliders, second to anyone associated with UH as I know he'll make sure they use the computer, and thereafter first come first served. Please give me a week to make sure that all potential HH and UH needs have been met. Regards Andrew |

Andrew
I have a second 1-26 that I am restoring for the purpose of making it available to young fliers to encourage them to get involved in xc and 1-26 competition. I should have her completed by this fall (i cant work on her may to sept due to being a crop duster, thats my busy time). If the ilec is still available it would find a good and usefull home in promoting xc flying for youngsters. Dan #225 |

Please let me know if you need more info! Sincerely, Alex |

Last year I ran a cross country prep groundschool and this year we'll be doing some dual cross country in the club's Grob. The Libelle currently has a non-functional LX4000 in it, so it's even lacking an electric vario. However, it has two batteries in it! And, also, we have the Soaring Foundation to encourage young pilots: http://www.ncsoaring.org/ncsf.htm Matt at NCSA (And I used to fly at HH and I know Hank. Does that count? ;-) |

ILEC SN10 free to a young soarer
Wow, I did not expect so much response so quickly! I would urge anyone else sitting around with unused equipment to consider offering it to those who has responded to this thread who I won't be able to help.
I have to stick with my rules, so the first winner so far is Robbie and Hank, followed by Dan. Boy, there is just something so amusing about thinking of a 1-26 with an Ilec in it I'll wait a few more days to see if anyone from HH responds as per my original post, after which I'll give you a call Hank. To the others, I really wish I could help all of you. I sincerely hope that other old, unused pieces of equipment show up over the next few weeks so you ALL get to do more cross country, or encourage your young members to do so. I KNOW there have to be a bunch of old units lying around collecting dust! Thanks all Andrew |

This will go to Dan or someone else who will use it for kids or newbies. UH |

Sincerely, Alex Hi Alex, how would you like to purchase your OWN sh-1? you can get it for a similar price as a share in an SHK-1 although the reason is that the wings need to be painted. and by need to be painted i mean they are stripped. the good news is that some of the work is already done. PM me, brayera at gmail dot com |

Thanks Andrew and UH, that would be great if your vario becomes availabe for my donor 1-26. Andrew I used to have and old cambridge ( old like in 1975 old) and it died so I replaced it with a used cambridge 302 system, i cant say that it makes a 1-26 fly any flatter but it sure helps on seeing if the next iffy glide is gonna get me home or put me in a swamp lol. Thanks again.
