I would be happy to help you get started.

You can contact me via my website: gliderCFI.com

Okay, I spent a few minutes skimming your site. I imagine I'll take a more detailed look later. I also googled Condor and found some other stuff on it.

To be honest, I'm a bit skeptical about how much one could accomplish sitting at home flying a sim -- however, I say that having exactly ZERO experience trying it. And several of the student pilots in my club have suggested it to me too. But, for example, can any amount of sim spin training prepare one for real live spin training in a real live aircraft?
