Where are commercial and other oportunities to receive training in

Any help is appreciated.

Ernst - You need to specify whether you are discussing:
- retractable-pylon high-performance gliders, or
- touring motorgliders

The safety considerations and appropriate training
are extremely different.

Hope this helps,

Good question. I'm also interested in MG training in a retractable pylon MGer.

Dave's link goes directly to your request. For other information, this
will take you to the home page, and is easier to remember:

motorglider.org

And we'll have a booth at the SSA convention.
