Default Future Club Training Gliders

OK, I'm convinced. Having as many as possible intro gliders into soaring is
better than having fewer...regardless of WHAT the intro gliders look like!


Just as a side note, the Greater Boston Soaring Club (GBSC) will be
putting our three L-23s and our Puchacz to bed for the season in a
couple of weeks, but the club's 2-33 will be flown all winter for
instructional flights whenever the weekend weather allows. Our
students may fly the Blaniks all Summer, but from November to March
the 2-33 is the only 2-place glider flying in New England. If it broke
tomorrow, we'd be scrambling to find another one the day after that.
Of course we also put our single-place L-33, B-4, and 1-34 gliders in
storage and fly our 1-26 all winter, but god forbid we open THAT can
of worms!
