'Eastern Sailplane Announces Retirement as U.S. Schleicher Representative
After more than 30 years, John Murray, the U.S. Schleicher representative based in Waynesville, Ohio, has decided to spend time on other personal pursuits. "Linda and I have been committed to Schleicher and promoting soaring as a profession and a passion. But it's time now to pursue other things besides the day-to-day business of being a representative," Murray explains.
"I approach this with great anticipation for the next stage of my life. And, I have huge doubts that I'm doing the right thing. Then I look again and realize it is the right thing and the right time," Murray says." I deeply thank all of you who have supported me so loyally all these years. It has been a wonderful ride."

Williams Soaring Center selected as the New Alexander Schleicher Agent for USA
We are very pleased and honored to announce that after 30 years in the sailplane training rental and ride business and 20 years in the sailplane repair and service business, Williams Soaring Center has been named the newest USA sales and service agent for Alexander Schleicher Flugzeugbau GmbH. We have been supporting the Schleicher brand for many years through our FAA certified repair station building a strong relationship with the factory. For us, this is a dream come true to represent this fine sailplane manufacturer. We have owned, operated and raced Schleicher sailplanes from ASW 19 - ASH 25 since 1985. We currently operate 6 Schleicher sailplanes in our instruction and rental fleet and are anticipating the arrival of the brand new ASG 32 late this Summer. To say we are fans of Schleicher sailplanes is an understatement!
We want to thank Uli Kremer of Alexander Schleicher for accepting the referral from John Murray of Eastern Sailplanes to consider us for this awesome responsibility. As a customer of Schleicher for the past 30 years we feel uniquely qualified to add this agency to our portfolio of services, realizing we are following an amazing act. We look forward to carrying on the strong legacy of Eastern Sailplanes and Alexander Schleicher for years to come.
We understand this is small market in a very big country and look forward to the challenge of keeping this wonderful and growing fleet of fine sailplanes in the air.

John, you and Linda have been great for our sport. We look forward to seeing you at contests and thank you so much for you service and friendship.
To Noel and Rex and the rest of your family, you certainly deserve the promotion. Best wishes for a successful and profitable business ... just like you have now. How about a satellite office in Atlanta?!!

to John Murray:
Congratulations on your retirement.
And, by the way, your old Standard Cirrus, now Lima Yankee, is alive and well in its trailer next to my driveway in State College, PA. It flew last Wednesday.
