Club Class Glider Wanted for Rent

[Christopher Schrader]

I'm a Mid-Michigan based pilot looking to rent a Club Class glider and road-ready trailer for the 2017 & 2018 seasons (needed by late April prior to R3 "Sports Class" Contest). I would prefer to fly a Std. Cirrus, Mini-Nimbus, or HpH 304C but I'm open to other models with larger cockpits (242+lb useful load needed). I will provide an AOPA renter's insurance policy and will take very good care of your aircraft. Please reply back and I will contact you to so we can discuss the particulars and negotiate rental rate, annual inspection, etc.

Thank you,
Chris Schrader

Hi Chris,

Downsizing at Marfa.
My 1972 Standard Cirrus serial #187 (later wing.)
662 total time. Very nice Eberle trailer (both never outside overnight / hangared since I acquired in 1998.)
Original gel coat in good ++ condition. Airbrake modification. Basic instruments and radio. Spare tail skid. Parachute available.

My personal sailplane, not a club ship nor a “rental.”
I’ll keep my late father’s Open Cirrus as my personal sailplane.

Let’s discuss!

Burt
