I would want to fly in up to a dozen countries.
I would like a European central office that would handle

Who would I have to contact in Europe to find out?

The FOCA of the country in which you intend to fly.
If nothing else, you
will be required to have a liability insurance for
the glider.

Udo,

You will find that Europe consists of lots of little
countries that are different from each other with their
own languages and their own laws. Us glider pilots
tend to fight against having one ruling body for the
whole land mass, imposing a lowest common denominator
of the worst of all the rules on all of us.

I know that is a pain, but that is why we like it.
