Eagleville Sailplanes is the oldest gliderport in the south and
operates on the oldest airports in Tennessee that's still active. *The
operation has found itself forced to transition from a commercial
operation to a club. *The good news is we have 20 members who are
ready to pay the fees to become a club and keep the operation going
2010 and beyond. *The bad news is we're in need of a tow plane.

Eventually we want to buy one but for the next 12 months we're looking
to lease one back from some one or operation that may have a spare
that's under utilized.

We estimate 370 tows per year - this is the low average over the last
five years. *Our previous tow plane was running about 80 hours per
year Hobbs time.

Open to any offers for a good strong tug - (Pawnee 235, Maule, L19,
C180, etc)

Thanks
