Europe is drowning in its own dysfunction as Germany promotes
austerity, which is exactly the wrong medicine for what ails the continent. It
just may be the case that the Greeks find their way to the exit door. And it is
this prospect that has brought us to the place where gliders from Italy are
affordable, if purchased from their US distributor.

The Laminar price list found here:
http://shop.icaro2000.com/CatPricePDF/20/0/ shows direct from Icaro prices to be much different from the
prices from Urs shown below. For example, this document shows the Laminar Basic at 7780
Euros. But if you scroll back in that document you'll see that VAT (22 percent?) is perhaps (it is unclear) included in that price despite a statement here that these prices are applicable world wide.

Due to the falling Euro, the cost of the Icaro gliders has dropped
dramatically. The current price of a Euro is under $1.16. That would make the
topless Z9 about $7372!

All prices in Euros:

6355 Basic Z9

5199 MastR

4372 Orbiter

3265 RX2 Single Surface

3959 RX2 Single Surface Tandem
