Anyone ever purchase a used glider with an experimental certificate,say

I understand that some gliders were imported and flown as
experimental such as jantars, due to govermental restrictions on
reciprocal airworthiness circumstance.
The ASW 19b has been given U.S. standard certificates.
Just wondering

I purchased a used ASW19B that had no US CofA. It was an import. As
long as you have the Original Export CofA from the manufacturer and
take it to a DAR you should have no problem. I did mine through Dave
Monti in Minden and he did the annual along with it. The FAA DAR
directory is here and you want the DAR maintenance guys.
