Temperature is right (25C) - but there is 8/8 low cloud in Johannesburg (South
Africa) right now. No flying, gloves or no gloves.

Funny - I tried to fly with gloves to protect my hands from the sun - and found
i my flying deteriorated significantly. Maybe on a glider that has
higher stick
forces than my Cirrus it is not an issue, but even soft pigskin leather was too
much for me to retain feedback.

I think your glove problem whilst flying stems from you flying skills!
If you were all over the place normally (like me) then the gloves
wouldn't bother you and you could save a bundle by flying locally in
the cold. So all you gotta do is loosen-up and fly right (wrong)!
