Hi

I flew in St-Auban at peak season. You have to reserve months in advance.
St Auban is also big business. Income of 1 000 000 euros a year would not surprise me.

Title would better have been "This is why the French are so good".
Their coach is a national treasure.
Their training site is a Mecca. It generates enough income to support a training program anyone would want to be in. I would guess the tourism income to the area would cover much, if not all, of the support they get.
Take a bunch of talented new pilots. Give them gliders to fly and a place to stay so all they need to worry about is getting good.
Coach them all the time with real objectives in place.
Reap the reward.
