Default That TLAR doesn't look right

It may be too high, but it's hardly dangerous. Since you can basically turn the glider around virtually on a dime (think rope break), Your distance from the runway is not critical. And you can easily lose 600 feet, or even a 1000 feet on final by just opening the dive brakes and diving at the end of the runway (don't try this in a power aircraft however).
