Parts/Accessories for Sale

[Algee]

Hello Everyone,

After 13 years I'm selling my Phoenix.  There's nothing wrong with the airplane...it just isn't the right glider for the Pacific Northwest.

I've moved "up" to a Stemme S-12G (the up in quotation marks as it's been 'down' more than up.  A long, sordid story, and if anyone is interested, let me know.).

There are some Phoenix parts in my hangar that I'd like to sell, if any of you are interested:

1.  A set of full wing, and horizontal stab/elevator, covers.  These are from Bruce's Covers, made of Sunbrella, fit very well, and have not been used much as the airplane's been hangared almost all it's life.  A new set costs $1180 and I'd be happy to sell them for $800.  They come in a sturdy bag.

2.  A Ptot tube, not used, which I carried as a spare.  Not sure what JMB charges now but I'm asking $250.00

3.  A pair of fuel quantity sensors of the float kind, what new airplanes come with.  They came as part of a set of new main wings I purchased and were never installed.  Asking $50 for the pair.

If any of these interest you let me know.  Shipping is not included, but I can send them on my FedEx acct. which gets a pretty good discount.  Or any other way you want.

Having been a Phoenix owner for a long time, I know everyone is concerned about the airplane's future with JMB.  I had to deal extensively with them when I needed to replace my propellor, and had quite mixed feelings about it.  Ed Begovitch is very sincere in wanting to provide support, and I hope will be able to work things out with them.

My wishes for lots of lift to all of you.

Regards, and EXCELSIOR!  *

*"Excelsior" is the name on my Phoenix, which I got from where I grew up - New York State.  That's the state motto, on its flag, and is Latin for "ever upward".  Fitting!
