At Adelaide Uni Gliding Club many years ago (late 1980's early 1990's), we had a guy called Matthew Nicholls.
He had lost both his arms (above the elbows) as a result of a childhood accident and had prosthetic arms. He went solo in the ES59 Arrow. He had a special attachment for his right arm so he could use the stick and there was an extension for the airbrake lever that he could operate with his left "hand". However he found downhill skiing more exiting and left gliding after a few years. Not sure what he is doing now.
