Hi Mike Why don't you look at the bright side? The exchange rate is still so much better than it was only three or so years ago!!! Even allowing for the recent slight decline of our currency against the Euro new gliders are now significantly cheaper for Australian customers. In fact they are about 30% cheaper (or should I say less costly) than a few years back. There is hardly any need to paint everything in a negative light. Kind regards Bernard
