Friend bought yet another sailplane in Montrose, Colorado and needs it moved to upstate New York.  It doesn't have to be towed wheels up, but can be flat towed; it has a 2" ball and weighs ~1800 lbs.

If you're headed east and can help out, closer is closer. Of course you will be compensated.

If you have recommendations or suggestions, love to hear them.  He got one quote for $3,000; quite high since I paid $1600 to get one from Sacramento, CA to upstate NY.

It's one of these:

Hit up SyntheticBlinkerFluid & see if he’ll be passing back through that area empty.

If it comes through Nj, I do not mind taking it the NY border. We can form a conga cargo line across the country with it

I could do from Jamestown, NY to the upstate area at the end of the month. Will have an unladen truck heading east.

Learned yesterday a member of the club is driving to Las Vegas in March to  see his daughter.  Guy that bought the glider is the club president, so he is cutting a deal to loan his full sized van for the guy to drive out with, swinging through Colorado on te way back.

Almost too easy.
