Unfortunately, the liability issue kills the whole thing before it can
even get off the ground.

What liability issue? Everything is insured.
This is done throughout the world as well as in the USA. The glider policy
covers the occupants and the airfield policy covers the winch. In fact, the
insurance is much cheaper than for an airplane. Although it is very
exciting, it isn't particularly dangerous if done by well trained pilots and
winch operators.

Sorry Bill, I was stlii thinking Primary Glider.
I doubt you could find anyone that would underwrite a solo training
glider.
Dual sailplanes, with instructor - or at least qualified pilot - aboard
might be another story entirely.
