OK, now we're getting somewhere! I fully agree with you and it brings
up another pet peeve of mine about power that gliders don't seem to
suffer from. It's called Courtesy. Somehow a glider field can have
gliders all over the place, more than one in pattern, the towplane
taking off with someone in tow etc.... all at the same time and we
somehow manage to get through the day.

On the power side, I've come across more clueless Yoke holders busting
patterns, not using a radio, cutting people off, descending without
looking, overtaking and the list goes on.

So if you have to use a go around to save yourself from the clueless,
that's fine by me!!!
