Hi guys, I was just chatting life the universe and everything with Barry Kennedy....and the topic came to the cost of sailplanes (to him) obviously based on the opposite directions of the Euro to Dollar. The Dollar is down a little more today again... I talk to guys all over my travels who say they will be buying a new ship in the near future...but in the near future, the prices have to go up. The sailplane's our suppliers have purchased and paid for last month is pricey...but the ones they will replace with today are going to cost them more USA cash...and cost YOU more for waiting a month...or a week. Barry has the latest version of the Supra in stock today, new aileron construction, new horn construction, lighter and stiffer and 2.4 friendly...for the same $1,400 that they have been at ...but he ordered them with full wing wiring harnesses (usually another $40, almost whether you make it or buy it pre-made) at no extra charge. That's got to change if it's going to be worth him and our other brand sailplane suppliers bothering to put up with our frequently asked questions and whining about dents and flaws..and questions about 'are we there yet daddy?....to make it worth the repeated trips to the airport and the friendly customs agents...paper work, loading and unloading vans, stacking, inventorying....web site maint, etc. Wait and Wail....it could cost you cash. Sumth'n to think about ;-). Gordy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It's Tax Time! Get tips, forms and advice on AOL Money & Finance.
