Before any return to flying is signed off, revised support systems and procedures need to be in place. This whole saga resulted from a procedural failure which needs to be addressed.

It is likely to be over-engineered, and decided who will implement it. Already vgs were suffering from excessive administration burdens, are volunteers going to want to return if they face more paperwork and less time flying. The whole issue is more complicated than simply resolving the technical issue and off we go as before.

It needs a fundamental rethink on how the organisation delivers gliding. Far better to decide future strategy now in a calm and considered manner and create a robust future proof system, rather than panic and feel the need to get flying, no matter in what shape as soon as possible. However, as soon as the magnitude of this problem became apparent, those in charge should have realised that the organisation could never be as it had been, and so should have begun the end to end review far sooner.
