Default New Butterfly Vario

Eric- i understand that in europe cloud flying training was part of the private glider pilot requirements. not sure if this is still the case today.

in general i think basic instrument skills should be a part of all pilot training, even sport & glider pilot. every pilot should have some basic understanding of how to maintain control of their aircraft if forced into imc. im not saying they will all live, but that doesn't mean they should not have some training.
