Hi Richard,

The link below will get you to THE place where everyone advertises their 
gliders for sale:

http://www.wingsandwheels.com/wantads1.htm

It is the Trade-a-Plane of gliders.  You will find all sorts of older 
sailplanes for sale.

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,
