Apart from other competing interests and local availability factors,
the cost will always limit many people in their endeavours to become a

To get the costs down sufficiently to really interest a new kind of
public, you would have to multiply the number of sailplanes and pilots
so much, that our already cluttered airspace would be completely
saturated.

Surely you aren't talking about Australian airspace? Or USA airspace for
that matter. Europe maybe?
