Scheibe/Alliance SF-34
Wally:
Could we lay up some moulds and make a trailer like your Libelle has?
Actually a ride to Moriarty could be a worthwhile trip anyway. I hear they
have some fairly good soaring there sometimes!
Cheers!

Good point Hartley. Our membership is at a point right now that we have
need of both another 2 seater and another single place. We can only
afford one bird right now, so we pretty much decided to go with whatever
good deal popped up. An LS-4 is at the top of our list for a single
seater, although we've been looking at baby Grob's and Juniors. We have
procrastinated and missed a good Cirrus 75 (fixed stabilizer) with the
enhanced dive brakes that would have been a good club ship. We also
missed out on pretty good Twin Astir (am I allowed to use the words
"good" and "Twin Astir" in the same sentence"?). We have so many pilots
at 6 feet and over 200 lbs that cockpit size is a major constraint.
Charlie Finn is going out to look at the SF-34 tomorrow. If it is as
represented, we are going to buy it. However, it don't got no treller.
Wanna loan us the MGSA ASK-21 trailer? Actually, we have a trailer, but
it's originally for a 2-33 so it's not set up for a glass ship. The guys
at Moriarty said they would set it up for us if we bring it out. Whew,
gonna be a long ride to N.M. and back.
Hope to see you in Cordele.
