1) Listen to Robert's advice!

2) Even if the glider's only $15k, go see it in-person if at all
possible! *Even a $500 plane ticket is peanuts compared to a $15k
albatross you decide you don't want or can't fly. *Photos simply do
not show enough detail to get a complete sense of the gelcoat/paint
condition.

3) Check your State's Department of Revenue, to find out whether you
will owe sales tax or use tax upon bringing the glider into the state.

4) Trailering a glider cross-country is usually fine if the trailer
has a valid license-plate. *Get it home, then contact your local DOL/
DOT to get the aircraft and trailer properly registered in your state.

Good luck, and don't settle! *Its far better to search for just the
right ship, than to wind up with something you're not truly satisfied
with.
