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.

Ramy-

They are from USHPA website

Show me your stats?

My issue is with the ahole who like to disrespect other people.

Just curious, who are you referring to here? I also agree that the stats
cannot be correct. If you have been to any PG/HG sites you will see that
PGs vastly outnumber HGs these days. HGs are being swept into the black
hole of history. A couple of days ago I asked a PG friend of mine what
he thought of perhaps learning to fly SPs. He gave me the expected
answer: far too much hassle, too much dependence on infrastructure and
other people, too expensive, too much time required, the sport is full
of geezers, no women in the sport, etc. The usual answers. I frankly
think that it's a waste of time to try to recruit anyone at all. The
people who come to SPs are those with a natural tendency to seek it out.
There, I said it.

Yep and you continue to be an ass about it. Call people disrespectful names, profiling entire groups as bib wearing geezers. And have you ever to been to wallaby ranch? Quest? Mt Ascutney VT? The numbers of PG and HG are close in the US. Another thing ...if you're looking to pick up women then go to a place to do that, fill out a online form telling them what a trilling cool guy you are, If you want to fly, be a competent pilot, fly long XC's compete in contests, share the air with likeminded people then do that and get dates somewhere else. I don't want to be in the air along a ridge with someone who is just in it for a lark and a trill. Go get a guitar and learn how to play ....you'll get more dates that way. LOL and every day that goes by pal you are turning into that guy you are disrespecting...ever think of THAT? idiot
