Private pilots and gliding experience
I have been wondering having seen some recent posts how much benefit there is to the private pilot of gliding experience.
Glider pilots do tend to be more competent with regard to glide approaches, PFLs etc, but beyond this how much does the private pilot actually benefit?
There are a few private pilots who may think that because they have gliding experience, there skill set is substantialy higher than other powered pilots. I feel this may lure some into a false sense of security.
I await the onslaught!
