Happy New Year all, I was curious if there is a list of operators that have 1-26’s for rent in different parts of the country.
Questions like, what kind of check out required? Rental insurance requirements ? Are the gliders available for cross country?
Are there clubs that allow qualified non- member pilots around the country? Etc.
Thanks a lot. -
I am trying to learn all I can before purchasing a 1-26.
Now I am hearing about checking if the glider has,” straight wings” .
Is that a thing? I suspect it can be a really big deal.
Safety of flight, etc?
How to correct?2 Comments-

Brian I’m guessing they are referring to wings that have been poorly repaired or rebuilt. This can show as wavy or curved trailing edges. It’s pretty easy to see.
