Aircraft Division of Grob Systems US Ceasing Ops

[ContestID67]

Reprinted from topic "Announcement".

To all Grob glider owners, operators, and maintainers,

After more than 24 years of service to the aviation community, the
Aircraft Division of Grob Systems, Inc. in Bluffton, Ohio is ceasing
operations. While the new owners of Grob Aerospace in Germany have
expressed a commitment to continue supporting the entire line of Grob
aircraft, they have unfortunately decided they no longer desire a
fixed presence in the U.S. You may contact Grob Aerospace in Germany
for your future parts and technical assistance requirements.

I have compiled a list of my remaining glider inventory and have
priced most items at or below cost. If you would like to receive a
copy of this list, please send me an email to
.

My long-time associate, George Stechschulte, and I greatly appreciate
all that the Grob Company has done for us and leave here with a
wealth
of wonderful friends and experiences. Our thanks go out to all in
the
aviation community for the opportunity to serve you.

Sincerely,

Michael Shade
Grob Systems, Inc.
1070 Navaho Drive,
Bluffton, OH 45827
Telephone (419) 358-9015
Facsimile (419) 358-3660.

The email address bounces, it looks like a
hasty closure.

I tried the second time, filling mshade@<remainder

I e-mailed Mike this morning (early) and didn't get a bounce message.
