I don't buy those stats. There are certainly more PG pilots than HG Pilots. There are more active PG pilots than active SP pilots.

The poster I was referring to was the gotovkot guy who continually slurs older pilots in his posts....no reason to do that. As for HGing and PGing neither are growing at this time in the USA. The numbers have been flat for years. PGing is easier to initially learn and we have a younger generation that is attracted to easy. Flying a glider is many good things but to do it well is a process and NOT easy.
