Is everybody afraid of World Class?

That's my whole damn point !!! When it is time for a new pilot
to buy a glider he want's the best he can get for his money.
If the the WC was an LS-4 or Discus CS, then I at least would have
had no hesitation in buying one.

No hasitation in buying one??? Take wild guess how much would you have
to spend on newly manufactured Ls-4 or Discus Cs???? There goes your
major DAMN hesitation!!!! Thats why you're flying 20 year old G102 NOT
even used Ls-4 or Discus Cs. Sorry but no glider is worth 80 - 100
thousand, it is truly sad to see one country gaining monopoly on
glider manufacturing and dictating the prices. I'm no fan of Pewee but
making a glider thats going to cost 80 grand a new WC is not going to
make gliding more popular either!
