GLIDING INTERNATIONAL -- RESEARCH

And we dont have two place motor gliders at every club but EVERY club over here does have members who also own a light GA aircraft.

Well, I don't think it has anything to do with North American
independent thinking.Â* More likely, it's that clubs in the US, at least
the ones I've been familiar with, are very poor financially as compared
to what I see on line about European clubs.Â* And motor gliders are
expensive.Â* As a board member of a club 20+ years ago, it was very
difficult to get membership approval of even the most useful expenditures.
