Greenville last Monday. Wings look pretty skinny.Engines look real
big.

He credits his glider training. Why not require glider ratings for

I wasn't there, but unless something truly abnormal happened to the
airplane, it's a pretty safe bet that poor planning and bad decision
making led to this incident. It is this same thought process you read
about in many of the glider accidents. Poor planning, poor decision
making, and poor saftey management resulting in a wrecked glider. The
best training and skill set will not overcome bad mental habits.
