AIUI, the moulds are unusable and they are no longer making new
gliders.

The production of the Fox stopped 2005 because the market seemed to bes
saturated. Edward Marganski has retired from business and the new
management has other priorities.

However, there seems to be good news: The rights and the molds have been
sold to a Polish manufacturer who seems to have built a small new serie.
The first new Fox will be sold so Spain by mid-2010. I don't know who is
that manufacturer, though.

This cannot be entirely true. I have been in contact with the Magansky
company occasionally since 2007 regarding a purchase. The latest offer
I recieved was in september 2008 when they consider building a batch
of 5. The Swift however is no longer available....

Brad, you can PM me if you want the contact persons I got.

Best regards
