I think the idea that motorgliderpilots glide to unlandable places trusting their engines to gain OLC points is pretty ridiculous. Darwin takes care of these pilots very quickly.

However, having engine is a huge advantage in OLC flying because you can press on at sunday evening for another 100km knowing that you will be home that same evening. There is no denying of this.

How to make OLC playing field level? Separate classes for gliders and motorplanes, maybe? Or at least a special price for best non-motorglider pilot/flight. Or maybe they should start with getting rid of those DaeC handicaps for starters, as they are a big joke. Same handicap for DuoDiscus and GF304, what are they smoking in Germany and OLC?

If you really wan't to succeed in OLC, fly short wing Turbo-LS8.
