Owl Canyon Sailplane Crash Today?

Last spring while chatting with Fred, he mentioned that approximately 75% of
his 11,000 glider hours were instructional, and, that he had 860 "ticketed
glider pilots" to his instructional credits. I didn't think to ask him if he
knew the proportion of ab-initio to transition, because the 860 number left me
pretty much speechless.

Here's a link to his obituary:
