Hello Gliders,



I wanted to make this post to see other pilots experiences at their local gliding clubs. My experience at my local gliding club is so-so, speaking as a young soon to be solo pilot, because of organisational management.



My friend and I have been quite frustrated due to extreme slowness of getting everything into play, from the briefing to bringing out the gliders. Only yesterday, we had the gliders out and ready to be towed to the glider strip at 9.30am, our first flight was at 11.15am... and it was a spectacular day for soaring.



Is this the norm?



I would love to hear your experiences! Thank you!

The simple answer to your perceived problem is to get your license and run for a leadership position in your club. Or you can get your license, buy your own glider and go fly cross country. Or you could get your license and quit flying. Or you can just quit now.

I’ve seen it all in my club. Make what you can of it.
