Hello, I’m the new owner of 466. I live in Ft Stockton (way west Tx). 466 is in reasonable good shape, last annual was in 2009. Can anyone point me to an ANP that knows 1-26s and could give me an in depth annual and inspection? I call Robert Mudd but he is retired. I really would like to get 466 back in the air.

The pic is in Ephrata WA where we (Evergreen Soaring) fly several weeks per year (I live on the West side Sedro Woolley WA). I got my Commercial Glider ticket at Arizona Soaring in 2020 then flew their 1-26 a few times. Loved it so…Read More
