Default General Flight Experience - Just Wondering

A recent conversation with an experienced glider pilot/flight instructor
got me to wondering...

I know of one CFIG/FBO who - when he got into the CFIG activity years
ago - admitted to several years of 800 hours/year in rides and
instruction...in Ohio!

I know roughly how many annual hours semi-sick weekend-warrior types can
accumulate.

And my recent conversation elicited an instructor with 11,000 total
glider hours (~75% instructing), and - gasp-a-rootie! - 860 'ticketed'
students.

What else is out there in the way of accumulated glider experience???
