Hi Guys,
Replacing the Blanik is indeed an option. The Grampians Soaring Club has
their (relatively), low hours IS28B2 for sale, as it is surplus to our
requirements. It is in good condition and comes complete with a recently
finished open trailer. It will be advertised in the September issue of
Soaring Australia, but if you want to jump the queue, contact me off line -
[email protected] Alternatively phone me on 03 5352 4938 (H/W).
Regards,
Gary

Hi all,
As you'd all know, Blaniks (unless they have the Llewelyn mod, and
unless they comply with the limited -but badly worded criteria from the
factory on the AD) are currently grounded...
Are we the only club still using a Blanik as our only trainer? It's
pretty hard to operate without a trainer... what are other clubs doing
about the situation?
Southern Tablelands GC has two Blaniks one with and one without the
Llewelyn mods. Both have been thoroughly inspected and the wing spars
are OK. We are waiting on word from LET via the GFA which would allow
the unmodified Blanik back into service. Failing that we will be looking
for another two seater.
I fear the market price of second hand two seaters has probably already
risen significantly!
cheers,
Ken
