There used to be a group named Southeast Soaring that was refurbishing
Blanik 2-place gliders. Does anyone know what has happened to this

Anyone buy one of the planes?
Thanks,
Termikas USA was the company. www.termikas.com looks like a shop in
Lithuania.
I think this was the Florida entity importing 'reconditioned' gliders from
Lithuania. IIRC, LET was refusing them export C of A's as they lacked
factory overhauls, so they were limited to experimental airworthiness.
Don't know if that was ever sorted out. My personal opinion was that the
asking price was way high given the limitation and sketchy paper trail, so
we didn't pursue the issue further and bought on L-23 from the factory.
