ASK-21
The ASK-21 is the standard by which two-place trainers are measured all over the world.  Built by Schleicher of Germany from the most modern of synthetic materials, the 17-meter K-21is in current  production so replacement parts are readily available.  The glider is easy to handle and yet fully responsive so beginning and intermediate pilots get a good sense of the air around them and how to use it safely and efficiently. 

SoaringNV's K-21 was built and shipped from Germany in Spring of 2008, and has been outfitted with state-of-the-art communications and flight computer equipment, including a Mode C transponder so it is visible to Reno tower controllers.  You will not find a more modern, better-equipped two-place trainer anywhere -- an important consideration as you think about moving up to high-performance single-place sailplanes.
