"Chuck" wrote in message ink.net... "Jim Buckridge" wrote in message om... "Chuck" wrote in message link.net... My cousin just bought a Schweizer 1 36 sailplane. We took it to the airport today where he is going to hanger it today, and put her together so the FAA could give the stamp of approval with the airworthiness certificate. Looks like the sailplane could be alot of fun. I have never been around them before. Just wondering how many guys fly gliders... I do! I just got my rating yesterday (Sunday 12/21). It wasn't an add-on, which makest the rating even sweeter. Still grinning :-) Congrats! So... you are not a PP, but are a glider pilot, huh? Did you have any problems? Would it have been easier to become a PP, then a glider pilot? I'm thinking of getting a slider certificate... Common misconception. He has a Private Pilot certificate. He is a Private Pilot. Easier is a relative thing, it depends on a person's aptitude.
