"Cheating"? Certainly, but it comes with age I think. When I was 20 I
could not belive that 30 years later I will be flying a glider with a
noisy engine on my back and that - most terrible of all - there will be a
slight smell of gasoline in the cockpit. At that time it was quite common
to make 2 outlandings on teh same day.

Cheating?

After careful observation, I've determined that all 100% of successful
raptors are of the self-launch variety. Many of them will also revert to
motoring home in a pinch.

What could be more natural than a SLG? "Pure" gliders are disabled.
