I need to start saving faster, I thought we were going to have to wait until the 'day of the pillow' for increased selection and lower prices on used gliders.

Keep in mind that many tow-pilots are of the same "vintage" as the glider pilots. If there is ever going to be a glut of gliders on the market, there may well be a shortage of tugs too.
