Service Agreement
Cost Of Continued Support For Aircraft Built By The Former
Manufacturers Glaser-Dirks And Rolladen-Schneider
You will have heard that there is the necessity of of Service Agreement for the aircraft, which were not built by our company, but for which we have to maintain a costly Type Support.
Details can be read here!
So if you need one of the following services we will ask you for such an agreement.
- Technical support
- Spare part support, as long as technically possible for us, even for 30 year old aircraft. (Applicable also when ordering through an aviation maintenance shop)
- Supporting material for new service bulletins and airworthiness directives. (free, except for the delivery of required material). As a "benefit" in 2011 the "Transponder TN" is also free now.
- necessary Technical drawings (free)
- Required maintenance instructions (free)
- Manuals (as pdf-file free again)
- 50% rebates on inspection procedures for service life extensions
- Aero Clubs (and private owners too) ordering new aircraft from us (delivery from 2010 on) will receive free coverage of their existing DG and LS fleet.
Cost of new Service Agreements in 2012
(For owners with an "old" Service contract, everything remains unchanged.)
For new contracts the following rules are valid:
The annual premium for the service agreement is required regardless, when the contract is signed.
The annual premium will be 425.00 Euro flat for 2012. This is for a "Full-Service-Agreement". All consecutive years will cost 245,00 for each glider.
Owners with more than one aircraft - especially clubs - will get a "mass rebate" for the second and each following one. For these aircraft we ask for a reduced premium of 300.00 Euro in 2012 and 150.00 Euro in all following years.
Where required by law, the adequate VAT or sales tax will be added.
Additionally we are offering a "Basic Service Agreement". This excludes some of our services. Pilots with such a "small version"
- cannot ask any questions directly to us
- will get updates of manuals but not complete new ones
- will not get a price reduction for the life-extension programs
- will not get a "mass rebate" for more then one glider
The price for the basic version is 425.00 Euros in 2012 and 180.00 Euro in all following years.
When any pilot never have asked any questions to us (because his repair shop did it for him!) this basic version might be an alternative.
When you already have had a full paid Service Agreement and want to change to a "Basic" one for the next year -, please only give us a short note till end of the current year.
(An explanation:
The increased price in the year 2012 is due to the fact that the Type Support has been performed by the T/C holder already throughout the year 2010.
A new signed “Basic Contract” also contains the delivery of a new maintenance manual for the glider.)
Always happy Landings
