Hang Gliding Equipment

This was my latest, greatest glider and cross-country gear before leaving the sport.  If you’re an advanced hang glider pilot and have never tried a wing like this, you should.  It’s still the state of the art in free flight.  Located in Boise, ID.  Contact:  CircleUpAgain@yahoo.com

ATOS C Rigid Wing Hang Glider

The carbon control frame was replaced with standard aluminum uprights and base tube and front wires were added.  This is a common configuration in areas with high density altitude like Idaho.  It would be easy to convert it back to the C configuration, just need the carbon control frame (I sold mine years ago).

The glider has very low airtime—about two seasons.  Manufactured in 2002, I’m the second owner.   North of $12,000 new.  I purchased it for $8,500.

Damage history:  Minor sail damage from a soft landing on a fence post (didn’t contact the leading edge or any of the spars).  Perfectly repaired by Dick Cheney (no, not the politician) at Great Salt Lake Sails, it’s barely possible to see the repair.

It’s currently in a crate in my garage, ready to fly.

Mountain High Oxygen System

All oxygen components new in 2000.  The bottles are good for five years on a test and have never been retested since new, so are due.  $20 / bottle for test according to Norco.  Both bottles are nearly full.  Here’s a link to the manual: http://1drv.ms/1Lg8q09
