TWO SEATERS

VH GIE Duo Discus 1/5th share in one of only two privately owned Duo Discus in the country and arguably the best presented Duo. She is normally hangered at Warkworth NSW. This is a great cross-country machine that is very capable and a social way of getting around or to just boat around the valley on a Saturday afternoon with a mate. International pilots maybe considered.Very competitive at 20m national level and has regularly attended. Whether you need a two-seater to gracefully age out of the sport or are looking for a share in a high performance 20m two-seater this maybe your machine. It is beautifully set up and easy to rig, Kylie and I rig it on our own most times with no lifting required. All remaining shareholders have interests in other aircraft so access is seldom a problem.
