GP Gliders
Hi UH, actually, a standard libelle class could probably work lol.
I guess the bigger unstated problem is the vast majority of fliers are not really interested in going anywhere xc or even fewer have a passion for racing. At my club here we have three 201's, and a 301. None of the guys fly more than a couple miles away from home even on a booming day. My last club had a nice astir 102, and guys had a mini nimbus and a LS-1. None of these three ships has put up a xc flight in ages. I guess the guys are happy to just float around at the top of the thermals. To me, that just breeds bad habits lol. But to each their own is how it goes.
