I can't remember the last time I saw a glider with STRUTS !!
And was that a METAL SKIN ??
Did you borrow it from the local museum ?


Gilbert... you're killing me I'm laughing so hard..

Schweizer 2-33, standard trainer in the US for many years (over 30?).. cheap
to get, cheap to maintain and easy on the students..
Solo students can transition quickly into the Schweizer 1-26 for solo
flying, cheap to get, cheap to maintain, and easy on the students..

Every club should have two or 3 for ab-initio training.. then we transition
them into the Grob 103 and LS4.

Great Soaring Gary..
