Default US: Who is Flying What

Very interesting and fun data. I was curious to determine which glider had the "highest" count. Of course as this is based on the ContestID, and a specific glider can be used by others, sold, etc, take the numbers with a grain of salt.

Interesting Factoid - there were 57 one-off unique gliders. These are listed below.

The top 100 models of gliders in order is;

SGS-1-26 564
Ventus 218

ASW-27 172
