The BGA does not have the systems or approvals in place to provide the airworthiness oversight for these gliders as the minimum the MoD require is EASA/MIL 145.
The BGA do an excellent job in administering the sport of gliding in the UK but it is not part of there remit to provide airline standard airworthiness. Such oversight would be inappropriate for the sport of gliding ( as well as expensive ) a military training system needs to be overseen by a much more stringent system, it is the shortcomings in stringent oversight that presiptated this fiasco in the first place.
