Question about cost of Gliders
I am working towards my Glider Pilots Licence and am
spending a lot of time on the internet trying to find a suitable glider to see if I can afford to purchase. I am looking for a self launching aerobatic glider. The thing is that it I have not seen any costs being posted on any of the sites that I visited. Can someone tell me how much a Windex 1200C glider cost? and if it is obtainable in the US? none of the folks at my school seem to know ..... |

You have to contact them direct for a price and availability. Go to their web site www.windex.se/Main.htm and see. |

Last kit price I recall was $38,000US, in about 2000, but don't recall whether that included engine/prop. I doubt they are still in production, but who knows. Probably less than ten built worldwide. This one's been listed for a few months. '97 Windex 1200C. 350 hrs. TT A&E; NDH; custom trailer, extra engine, many mods. World's fastest self-launching unlimited aerobatic sailplane. see at www.stevecoan.com NC Email: Posted: 12/15/2004. Judging by the website, he's no longer doing shows. AFAIC, these are not for the neophyte. Frank |
