Anyone know where I could get water ballast tanks?
« on: 07 September 2009, 12:49 »
Hi,

The water tanks in my 15 were thrown away years ago by a previous owner.

I am looking for a used set or a new set.

.....or if anyone knows how I can create one, I would be more than interest to know how.

Hi Scott,

Just contact Schleicher for a new pair of tanks. I wouldn't go for some old ones.

Hello Scott,
I don't know if I'm doin allright, but I think the Schleicher Tel.Nr. in Poppenhausen/Rhön is no secret...
So, if you chose to buy new waterbags
call 0049 for Germany, then 06658/890 and ask for Mr. Ulrich Krämer,- he's one of the the bosses and will surely help you.

Crosstail rules!
