There is a big difference between the two, and both make me smile when I fly them. I also flew unpowered gliders for 2500 hours, and smiled the whole time. Be glad we have choices, not sad that others don't share yours. I think everyone should be forced to fly a primary glider launched by bungee cords off a hilltop. Flying a standard class launched by towplane is cheating by comparison. Heaven forbid there should ever be advancements in the sport! |
