Pilots,
Thanks for all your help in the prior thread about selecting a ship:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!to...ng/USacPAI8Pm4
I've decided on an ASW 27, Ventus 2, or LS6. If a pristine ASW20 or Ventus C were to show up, I would strongly consider one of those as well.
There is a ship I'm considering in South Carolina. I'm in contact with the seller, however, he seems busy and has only sent minimal info and a few pictures.
I was considering having an A&P person inspect the ship before I went through the expense of a flight from Seattle to South Carolina. Is that a good idea? Has anyone done that? Any tips on what to ask for?
If the inspection works out, and I fly out and decide I like the ship, does anyone know of a company or service to use to ship a glider across the country (and can recommend)?
Thanks!

Hi
I bought a glider in Alberta and had a friend working there inspect it and followed his recommendation to buy it, agood decision. Now the fun story of getting it to Quebec,a 4 day trip. I found a student driving to Montreal over the easter weekend.
Sent all the info to him which he did not read, his father was a glider pilot and he tought he new which glider to take. After 3 day and night of driving
with his girlfriend he got to our meeting place with the wrong trailer.
