Can anyone give me a list of forgiving sailplanes out there. I know some

Well it's obvious from the replies thus far that you will need to
define what you mean by "forgiving".


I thought he defined "forgiving" by providing examples?

it could range from - If I hit something really hard with it will I
die.


Can you do that with the examples he gave? (After the abuse I put on an
SGS 2-33A and living to tell the tale....)

If I make the slightest uncoordinated control input will I spin down
through the gaggle and take out three of my friends


How about three enemies?

What did you mean?? What forgiveness are you seeking?


Maybe he wants a Catholic glider?

"Forgive me Father, for I have spinned...."
