Thank you for confirming your inexperience with motorglider operation, and your ignorance of them. People are often afraid of things they don't understand.

You might want to review my post and point out specifically the "anger and personal attacks". All I said was you were ignorant of motorglider operations, which you admit. That isn't personal attack, just a fact, which you could easily correct if you chose.

Anger? Personal attacks? Not from me...I only observe. But the same couple of people start thread after thread on this subject, and it does get tiresome. I wish Old Bob would fly a few thousand miles crosscountry in a motorglider, then report back on the experience. We could then discuss the pros and cons intelligently.
Just might want to review your post a bit more carefully, the old "Who Not Me", doesn't seem to apply. Now about that motorglider, Old Bob has flown quiet a bit in my lifetime, been places in my pure glider that most would never go, so experience is something that I am not lacking. I get a kick out of the motorglider guys and gals defending their stance on motorglider vs purist. So, Fitch, here is a special invitation to you to come on down to Vero Beach, join us in our 2022 Soaring Safari and fly among the purist. Old Bob

Sounds like it is time to end this conversation.
Why does it always end up with personal attacks?
Guy, don't worry I have thick skin, Fitch is just being Fitch. COVID has brought out all the anger in these motorglider pilots, hopefully they will get all their vaccinations soon.
