Default Looking for an affordable glider....

Hello everyone....

I am new to the sailplane and glider world and am currently overseas in Afghanistan for another 2 weeks or so. This is my final deployment and I am looking to get myself a little something to enjoy now that I have time.

I am looking for an affordable and fun flying used glider that is also safe, but flexible enough to race or do XC with as I get better. I have looked everywhere on the net to search through classifieds, but they are not around. I know there is more gliders for sale out there, and not the ads from 2005.

When I return home, I will be driving my truck from the East coast all the way back to my home in Las Vegas. I can pick up a glider along the way, with trailer. This has been my dream for the longest time... and if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and God bless.

Very respectfully,
Derek
