As said several times before, the trailer is everything for ease of
rig/de-rig. I've rigged the same model glider from differant trailers
and the effort required varied quite a lot. Any glider on your list is
fine; find the best set up trailer and buy that and take whatever is
inside. Great trailer set-ups make flying fun. A trailer that makes
you dread rigging/derigging will have you second guessing if you want
to risk using a crappy trailer in a field in the middle of the night.
Rig/derig on a gliderport is orders of magnitude differant then during
an off field landing. Putting the wings on is easy; getting the ship
safely in and out of the box is the real rub. Buy the trailer. Great
trailers make flying fun and will enhance the experiance. A good
trailer also makes it easier to find help rigging since the process
will be faster. You can fiddle w/ pins and such after the wings are on
and you've dismissed the help. FWIW, the LS-4 almost assembles itself;
if there is a good trailer.

Hi,

ASW20
LS 3 & 4
Speed Astir II
DG-300
JANTAR
Std. Cirrus
Mistral C

If there is easy to attach/detach plane, which is not in the list and
you can buy it with less than 25000 EUR, please let me know.

Hello Mika

Because this is an international group, let's keep this in English

One glider maybe just in the price range might be SZD-55. It also has
automatic connections, the only remarkable thing in rigging is the tail main
pin security.

It's one of the most bang for buck (or euro).gliders.

Regarding rigging/de-rigging I wouldn't recommend Astir - flown one for
maaaaany years with too many outlandings

regards

Hannu (currently flying SZD-55 "57")
