Hey folks (if there are any out there - this is a seriously quiet
list!):
I'm tossing around the idea of purchasing and restoring a sailplane for
a
"project" - but I know relatively nothing about that market except what
I
read (I should mention that I'm an A&P/IA.)
I'm not interested in newer composite aircraft - I'm thinking more like
a
"classic" Schweizer. I've been leaning towards one of the variations of
the
1-26, as they seem to be in reasonable supply and reasonably priced.
However, I'm open to suggestions!
Bottom line - can anyone suggest additional internet sources for looking
for
an aircraft? So far, I know about the SSA classifieds, I've been keeping
an
eye on the "Yellow Bible", and I've been eyeing the 1-26 site, but
mostly
what's selling are flyable aircraft. What I'm looking for is a
"project"...
and a budget :^) I plan to spend the money on the rebuild, not the
original
purchase.
Regards,
Richard T. Perry perryrt@hotmail.com
