	Glider/trailer needs to get from western Nevada to Switzerland. How does one get started? You could inquire with Williams Soaring in CA. They've shipped a few dozen ships to EU buyers. My buyer in Israel arranged everything to move my ship from Midwest U.S. using one of the main logistics companies. Cost was about $2500.  |

D'oh, not a glasshole. A few dozen is quite a bit of experience. I'll give 'em a ping. Thanks.

Not far off OT. The Swiss Franc is quite strong, so the buyer I have has a wee bit more flexibility wrt shipping costs. We're just trying to unnertand the mechanics.
