glider ride business - practical? bad idea?
There is a state Representative in Maine who has this as a business on the
side. He has two motor gliders and he has a substitute pilot who flies
for him when he can't be available. This man is not a member of SSA, nor
is his business registered there, and his site is not on the SSA map of
places to fly -- there is not such a one in the state of Maine. He
advertises locally and has brochures at the airport.
At the moment I can't remember either his name or at which airport he
flies, but I can easily find out from a contact in Maine. If you are
interested in pursuing this, send me a private email.

What do you guys think: is it feasible for one guy with a 2 seat
motorglider to offer glider rides as a part time business; just to earn
a bit of spare cash? Do you know anyone doing this who is not part of a
larger commercial soaring operation or schoool? Would appreciate your
thoughts.
