Abstract

We have experiences both encouraging and discouraging. As the International Gliding Commission (IGC) is thinking of improving gliding sport generally as well as promoting gliding in those 70% of the 175 countries who ignore it, we try to discuss in this paper our experiences from 5-decades of gliding activities, and also the recent work in reforming and popularizing the sport as Early Flight Education. It might not be new in a developed country, but, in order to take care of theother 70% in addition to investigating new advances, perhaps studying the case of a developing country might well be useful.
