Ryan,
Why not buy them from Knauff himself and provide sup****t to him instead
of a bunch of middlemen? http://www.eglider.org/
Of course, there are some very good middlemen on here, such as Paul
Remde at http://www.***ulus-soaring.com/,
or Tim Mara at
http://www.wingsandwheels.com/
I'd bet that either of those have them all, as well.
Good luck,
Ed
