Just found this 'Starlight 2000' thermal ship for sale. Bought my Starling from seller a few months back, a nice guy to deal with. This would be a nice plane for under $1000. www.hsl.org.au/forsale.html

Hi Mike,
I flew a Starlight 2000 some years ago at HSL. I wonder if it's the same one? They are an absolutely awesome thermal machine in neutral to bouyant air. Brilliant. They have a widely acknowledged problem in poor air - they drop their bum and drag it around while sinking rapidly.
From what I have heard/read, the Starlight 3000 on the same page would be a far better all-round thermal plane.
Ken.

I tried contacting that seller a couple of months back, but numb. was disconnected. Had heard that seller's health problems, how do I say, have caused his demise.
