Default gliders in movies

Well, if we're going to include made-for-TV movies, we must not forget
Skyward, 1980, directed by Ron Howard. A parapalegic girl follows a
pair of Jantars to the local airport, takes flying lessons, even goes
for a ride with Derek Piggot in a 2-32.

A young glider pilot gets in trouble after disturbing some drug dealers

I haven't seen the whole thing but there are only few moments in it
without a glider. Mostly Blanik.

Interestingly http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0348049/ says it's a British
production,
http://movies2.nytimes.com/gst/movie...ml?v_id=129031 says it's
US.
