Good morning all

 

Judging by two recent telephone calls there appears to be some
misinformation in gliding circles 
on the latest Australian Air Force order for new training aircraft.

The following is fact - the rest is unsubstantiated rumours:

 

.         The Air Force has ordered 11 (eleven) Schleicher ASK 21 Mi for
basic training of cadets

.         All of these gliders are self launchers and come with trailers

.         The aircraft will be based at four different training centres
throughout the country

.         Deliveries begin in August of 2014 and the contract includes
shipping, registration, 
aircraft inspection, delivery and operator training

 

To ensure that the rumour mill doesn't spread further let me point out that
a previous order for pure 
sailplanes from dg was not cancelled.  

 

Kind regards to all

 

Bernard
