When Steve finishes that ASW-12 I may have to make a pilgrimage from Vancouver to see it. I had been daydreaming about someday buying it since the first year I went soaring. I suppose that if I ever sell my ASW-15b I'll have to replace it with my second choice: an ASW-17. All that time spent practicing no airbrake, forward slip spot landings wasted :-)

Seriously, it's good to know the last 12 made is in the hands of someone who will appreciate it and restore it to it's former glory.

As for collections, well one member of my club owns a Grunau Baby and a Fauvel (also working on a Cessna 195 when he has time) but that's about it.
