Re: Glider curious

Excellent responses so far.

The 2-33 is the Aeronca Champ of Gliders. It is a great trainer and a
lot of people love flying them. If you like flying it go for it.

On the other hand the other High performance gliders mentioned are the
Cirrus or Columbia's of Gliders they are high tech and high
performance and are nothing like flying a 2-33. So if you don't care
for the 2-33 then try something a bit more high tech. They are worlds
apart . Of course there are intermediate gliders.

Just enjoy the flight. The transition is usually pretty easy. But once
you have a glider rating the learning has just begun , then you have
to learn how to soar and work on Cross Country flying if you so
desire.
