Default Insurance discount for Flarm?

Glider insurance companies in America need to wake up and get real.

10,000 hours of flight time in powered aircraft won't even get you a penny less on your premiums!

A private glider pilot with 100 hours of total time in gliders pays the same insurance as a 40,000 hour power pilot who has 100 hours in gliders.

FLARM should give a big discount. I used one last Saturday on the Seniors practice day and found it to increase safety tremendously.
