Default Can gliders and powered aircraft co-exist on the same runway?

Franconia NH, 1B5.

Is that where the gliders come from that see in the Nashua area?


Probably not, I suspect that it is a long way, through the notch, from
Fanconia
to Nashua. And I bet it would seem even longer on the return trip.

the Flight School at Daniel Webster College in Nashua has some "motor
gliders" for part of their syllabus
There are a lot of Glider Clubs and fields just over the line in
Massachusetts. Those clubs do use Franconia in the summer. I had my first
glider ride at Franconia, while I was a student at DWC.
