Pretty amazing prices (I think at Soissons it's significantly
cheaper). I definitely couldn't have afforded to start up gliding in
your club, nor would I have fun today if I calculated the cost for a
simple 500 km triangle...


So i clearly see something of the order of 2000 euros/year, and i am
quite sure you will have hard time to find less expensive while still
decent around Paris - and by the way i doubt very much it is less
expensive in the Alps.


I wonder what you are doing with all that money. Do you need to rent
your airfield?

In my club (with gliders at least as good as yours) the total cost per
year doesn't exceed 600 Euros per year.
