Sailplane production totals for 2004

I'm astonished that Germany has that
much relative interest.

The guy I finished the glider sport pilot
privilege for is going to Germany for a year.
I told him he is going to have a
FANTASTIC time there gliding...

Yes, this was great info. I hope Schemp Hirth
puts in a design for the next
World Class...it looks like it might
be well sold...

The main countries buying new gliders in 2004 we
Germany 139

Japan 4

All these figures are only approximate but should be
fairly close to the

a good few hours to
