Summary: 

It's about time the motor gliders were taken into account, I have seen
FBOs' make claims that "glider pilots can fly places that have in the 
past only been reachable by power aircraft pilots"  This is a way of
thinking that can lead to getting in real trouble.  

I have taken training in both power planes and gliders, the methods
of recovering from problems are different, something you better
know by instinct.  If you are to depend on the ability of a motor
glider to fly like a power airplane, you better know how to fly power
airplanes.  

So much for my first posting to the network.
