Towplane Needed

Eagleville Sailplanes is the oldest gliderport in the south and
operates on the oldest airports in Tennessee that's still active. The
operation has found itself forced to transition from a commercial
operation to a club. The good news is we have 20 members who are
ready to pay the fees to become a club and keep the operation going
2010 and beyond. The bad news is we're in need of a tow plane.

Eventually we want to buy one but for the next 12 months we're looking
to lease one back from some one or operation that may have a spare
that's under utilized.

We estimate 370 tows per year - this is the low average over the last
five years. Our previous tow plane was running about 80 hours per
year Hobbs time.

Open to any offers for a good strong tug - (Pawnee 235, Maule, L19,
C180, etc)

Thanks

Hey Michael,

Hello from the Carolina Soaring Assoc. in Spartanburg, SC.
We are going to be selling our '69 Cessna 188A-300 AgWagon.
Our club is over 40 members now so we've decided to sell the AgWagon
to invest in land for our field.
We have a Citabria that we lease and we operate a winch on most days
too.

Let me know if you would like details.


Regards,
Mike Williams, CSA Treasurer
