A real pity from a national perspective. Tocumwal has been really the
last remaining full time commercial operation, providing excellent
training at quite a good price.
Given the recent discussion about the need for GFA to support/provide
a more commercially focused operation to attract the wealthy, time
poor people, this decision makes it seem less viable?
Maybe a facility close to Sydney or Melbourne would do better, focused
only on training? Given that Tocumwal appears to earn most of it's
money from the European cross country pilots, a training focused
facility (such as Caboolture)may struggle to be commercially viable?
Let's be clear here - Caboolture Gliding Club is neither struggling nor
a commercial organisation.
The Super Dimona operation out of Caboolture is not training focussed,
concentrating more (as I understand it) on AEFs although they do offer
training, and I have no idea how they are going.
