An update... DG no longer refuse to deal with Avionic. Here is a snip from a recent email from the sales manager, Volker Halbe ...
"Regarding the trailer: We never dealed with Avionic before. If Avionic accepts to fit in the glider here in Bruchsal by themselves I see no problem. We had one customer with an avionic trailer some months ago and it seemed similar to Anschau quality."
