Dear Friends,

You may find these Air Transport Pilot (ATP) airman
credentials interesting.

These ATP airman credentials shew
glider rating only
with no airplane ratings. Can you explain this?

What are your suppositions or what does your knowledge
provide to explain such as these listed ?

Clearly these guys belong to a little known division of the
SSA called the " Troop Transport Glider Association"

or maybe...

They are the future pilots for the Virgin Atlantic Space gliders.
I believe Spaceship One was registered as a glider. It probably
only takes a Glider Commercial to pilot one of those.
