I suggest that glider pilots are, as a group, no where near as skilled as
those pilots and to permit glider pilots to execute down to the deck high
speed finishes at an airport does seem imprudent. The simple fact is we
legislate good judgment all over the place and some glider pilots do not
exercise good judgment.

Hmmmm....I see no Ivan Kahn on the US Pilot Ranking List which means either
you have never raced or maybe you're simply not giving us your real name.
Sounds like you must know a lot about the skill level of racing pilots
though. Too bad you won't be allowed to vote in the poll.
