Saveloys.
How many Slingsby T-67's or Katanas do you see in exciting colour schemes?
Not many more than the gliders, eh!
I haven't flown a glider for many years but thats where I started. I think its quite safe to say that glider pilots are better with stick and rudder than power pilots. This thread illustrates that rather well.

Gliders 1 -Power 0.

Incidentally, glider folks, what are the statistics on spin-in accidents? Theres a topic on turning back after engine failure after take-off in TECH LOG.
