Default GLIDING INTERNATIONAL -- RESEARCH

Been there, done that. And it depends on what your definition of “ decent” club gliders is. In a club setting my definition is ships which are inexpensive to fly and operate.
Due to the ridiculously high cost of personal aircraft ownership in EU, the club scene is essential for folks of modest means to get to fly. Thankfully here in the states, we are not forced into that situation. Any tom-dick-harry can, for modest means, own and operate his own ship! Can’t say that about EU. Have fun with your “decent” club ships over there, I’d rather own and fly my own ship, even if its of lower performance here, wherever and whenever I choose.
