Sorry for the double entry The info you want is a quote from the BGA "these instructor/examiners will be regionally based as our gliding examiners are and we will appoint sufficient instructors to cover the whole country" I don't think they will get the "instructor ticket you think. A lot gliding clubs only employ gliding instructors as tug pilots (so they know what is going on down the back)and also a lot of clubs have profesional pilots as their tug masters to provide the experience necessary. Hope this answers the original quiery!!
