Default Need help locating article from Soaring Magazine

I am looking for an article from Soaring Magazine that discussed the
differences between new pilots and experienced pilots. *It covered an
analysis of percentage of time the pilots spent flying versus flight
planning, etc.

I can't remember the title or author so any help would be
appreciated. *Likely from late 80's or early 90's.

Ola Tim,
I believe the article you seek presented the findings of a French
behavioral scientist who applied his profession to his hobby- soaring.
I learned of this gentleman's work thru Gene Hammond, who presented
these findings multiple times in Soaring Safety Foundation CFI-Glider
Recertification clinics. Send me an email privately and I will provide
Gene's particulars, or perhaps you can log in to SSA's website and use
member locator if you prefer.
Safe soaring,
Bob Wander
