With everyone recommending motor gliders as an alternative after a denial. Does anyone have information on fightschools or instructors? I’m in Colorado, our local Diamond HK-36 is being sold so I don’t know of any more in Colorado
Come on down to Boerne Stage Airfield just outside San Antonio. Dave White is a Pipistrel trained distributor who instructs in a demonstrator and you may decide to buy one, or not. I guarantee you'll have fun getting a glider rating in his motorglider. You might even decide to stick around longer and add an aerotow endorcement with the local glider club (SASSi).
