Getting back to gliding

by "K Smith" <freighter@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jun 29, 2008 at 02:01 PM

I haven't flown since 1993, and am now a diabetic who gained a large amount

of weight.  I have finally gotten off my lazy butt and decided to drop the

weight and get back in a sailplane.  I hope to be back in shape by this 
winter sometime.  What I need to know is if the medical requirements have 
changed since the early 90's.  I don't take insulin and have no other 
problems caused by diabetes and should be good to go medically.  I know
that 
to regian my power privlages I would have to jump through a bunch of 
government hoops, but it did not used to be this way for soaring.

Any info would be much appreciated.

Thanks
