(USA) NTSB issues recommendations to the FAA and the SSAregarding transponder use in gliders

Is it correct that if they remove the glider exemption from 91.215(b)
(3) and (5) that they will have to address the issue of aircraft that
were built without an engine driven electrical system, which also have
an exemption? I'd think the FAA will have to gore more oxen than just
gliders (like all the J-3 cubs) or they would have to reword so those
aircraft were exempted but gliders included in. Any comments?

Knowing the IFR approach corridors helps in bad weather, but in good
weather, many charter operators file direct and fly it when possible,
especially when visual approaches are being issued. Do all direct
approaches fit in al lthe corridors? I don't know. I do know that in
good weather one can cancel IFR and come in VFR from about any
quadrant and altitude (below 18,000) one wants.

NTSB recommendations are not always promptly saluted and acted on by
FAA, as we all know.

It would be good to have a good, broad ranging debate that included
technologically and financially feasible operations.

Regretably, some struggling clubs may have to physically move to
operate outside the listed areas and that may not be easy in some
cases.
