They must be nicer glider pilots in Ireland, I never had a problem and I fly into a gliding site and sometimes they land with me.
Its a bit like Those at the "Big airport" saying "dam those fu..ing microlighters, and the microlighter talking about the spam cans, the Pfa,ers hate everybody else and no one wants the poor old glider.
We gave up farming a few years ago and planted 30,000 trees, a good way to put the gliders off.
They do know how to sideslip though
