Well they don't win the emotive "200 pax are worth £5000 argument, do they?
Oh right, i see. So as long as it's a smaller commercial aircraft and less people are killed in a mid-air that's acceptable is it??

The point is: GLIDERS WITHOUT ANY TYPE OF TRANSPONDER ARE MORE OF A DANGER THAN GLIDERS WITH ONE......you cannot possibly disagree with that, therefore they should all have them...it's a total "no brainer"
