Default Busiest Soaring Operations?

Im curious as to how many "busy" operations there are in the US. and
how busy is busy? Anyone out there training more than 5 students a
month? that would be pretty incredible I think.

check out www.xwindsim.com I talked with Brad about adapting his sim
to teaching aerotow and it seemed to him like it wouldnt be to bad.
of course the demand has to be there to justify it. hes using it now
as a crosswind training device and quoted that it takes about 5
students (at 2 hours each) to justify the cost. so i guess the real
question is are there operations out there that could keep the sim
busy for 10 hrs a month?
