I'm just coming back into gliding after a long time grounded and I'm
looking to buy a glider over the winter. A two seater seems a nice idea and the Nimbus seems to be a lot of glider for the money. Are they in any way difficult or unpleasant to fly? I know there have been structural failures due to loss of control. Are they difficult or heavy to rig? Maintenance issues? Airframe life issues? How much would insurance typically cost - a two seater has to cost more than a single seater? Is winch launching unwise? Is it best to stick to a tarmac runway? Any advice greatly appreciated, thanks. |
