Why not put an audible variometer in every glider?

"CFI-Gs largely hold sway over how we equip our trainers. Many CFI-Gs just want the student to pass the PTS ASAP, and basic skill with a audible variometer is not part of the PTS." If a student isn't taught the elements of soaring during basic glider training, why would anybody expect him to stick around for long? I should think that flying a glider without having the necessary soaring skills would get boring rather fast. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org |
