JP, could you please define "flight operations" in your context. I know the FAA would count a single airplane tow of a glider from an airport as 4 airplane movements, as there were two takeoffs and two landings. 6300 flight operations for a club with 90 members seems like a whole lot of flying in a year. Especially considering typical numbers of "active" club members to "total" club members.

Bill, I will have infor for KSA as it pertains to Sunflower Gliderport for you this evening. Will post here.
