Potential conflict near gliding sites.

How wide a berth???........class G airspace see and be seen.......what happens on a good thermal cross country day and all your gliders bog off 30 miles down wind...what then.........not being pedantic but come on you really cannot be serious!!! At least good airmanship would dictate that at the very least any powered aircraft or helicopter will maintain an extra good lookout whilst transiting close by a recognised glider site.........many years ago I was halfway up a winch launch at Feshiebridge when an USAF F111 bomber flew 400 metres away at the same level....now that was close!!
