Re: [Aus-soaring] Cost, hail damage

2014-09-11 Thread Teal

Wow.

I've not been able to fly at all over the last year or so because of an 
injury. But any concerns I've had that getting back into gliding might 
mean having to deal with piles of sexist crap from misogynist creeps 
have now just been nicely demonstrated to be quite plausible.


Actually, that issue is just one of a bunch of things making it hard for 
me to get back into gliding at present. But it's a factor, oh yes it it. 
Thanks a ton, boys.

Hi Simon, unfortunately that is a Schleicher model, no amount of money 
short of the GDP of NewZealand will fix it.




May I suggest you place your hail damaged one in the glue pot to help 
keep old ASK's and ASW,s flying.




Here is a hail damaged Schempp-Hirth Model of the same age, as you can 
see they are built to a higher quality







The other advantage is that all Schempp Hirths come in a variety of 
models to suit all tastes no matter sex or inclination. Attached below 
is the basic trainer and first solo machine.

Thanks Tim, Mark and Scott.

I also was flabbergasted with the recent posts.

I have trouble understanding how anyone in the twenty first century
could think that objectifying a person, then making them the butt of a
joke is acceptable. And no, the body builder follow-up is not
acceptable, nor does it excuse the first post.

regards,
Lucas
