Default Sparrowhawk handling

Good point about flying more frequently. I wonder how many hours the average glider pilot logs in a year?


I've averaged about 15, over 30 years.

Some years, nothing at all. One year 90. Most years 10 - 15.

I've flown quite a bit the last three years, since I became an instructor, doing a day of trial flights every two or three weeks. But it's likely to be near zero the next three years, as I've taken a job in Moscow and there seems to be not a lot around here. I'm planning to visit friends in Szeged (Hungary) from time to time for a fix, and maybe others in Germany/Czech/Poland too. But it's not going to be a lot of hours...
