Cheapest Club (was Best Gliding Club Website)

In 99% of Polish clubs (some 50 clubs) the equipment has been handed by =
the goverment bodies during the communism era (It's the only nice =
thought I have got on it). There are very few gliders bought after =
1989yr and most of them were funded by municipalities or other goverment =
supported bodies. Just to give the example, the PW-5 in my club was =
bought with the help of the mayor of Czestochowa, or the two PW-6s used =
at Rzeszow were bought by Rzeszow Polytechnic University, which has an =
aviation department. Add to this few modern competition gliders bought =
by the Polish Aeroclub to provide equipment for the National Team (most =
of them fly at Leszno).

Now, the most new registrations of gliders in Poland are privately owned =
gliders, mostly Jantars which are reexported back to Poland from Russia =
or CIS countries in general. They have a good prices and in my club =
there are three Jantars Std. 3 which came back to their home country and =
a LAK-12.

So... You may be right, the apples may differ at least...

OK Andreas and Janusz I just gotta know where does the scratch, dough,
frogskins, moolah, change, MONEY come from to purchase all this =
really,
really nice soaring equipment? Somehow clubs in the Good Ole US of A
don't seem so well stocked with soaring inventory even though by your
standards the dues are outrageously high. Are we comparing apples to=20
apples here?
