In this part of the world most gliders (UK) are syndicated
(partnerships). In fact several people at our club
are in multiple syndicates. For example one person
has shares in a Bocian, K13 and a primary. Another
has a 1/10th of a Nimbus 3dt and 1/2 an asw20. Keeps
the cost down and the utilisation up.

If you find a partner with a different lifestyle it
helps. for example a 9-5 person and someone who works
shifts such as an airline pilot or retired.

Incidentally I was sat at a table outside our club
drinking tea today and noticed I was in company with
a junior world champion, 18m world champion, ex club
class world champion, the chairman of the BGA and two
ex british team members. How cool is that!
