I think soarers are substantially better at landing without power (OK, its a gimme) than 6 hour per year GA pilots.
Those of us that post on here are, mostly, fanatics (your wives will agree with me). We fly as much as we can and probably far, far more than the average low hours, once every couple of months, circuit basher/occasion club renter.
Its a safe hobby, provided you know the risks, know the drills and can act the drills out without panicking.
On Track... love your take on life, mate
