Can you point me to a source of "wedekind sleeves" (I hope I spelled it
properly) which will install over the l'Hotellier conectors? Also, I am
in a need of the graphic symbols for cockpit use, I mean the landing
gear down and up icon, the speed brakes, etc. I would like to find them
in some sort of a format that I could simply give to my local print
shop and get it printed on vinyl or something of that nature. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

I know M&H had the sleeves a few years ago. Try touching base with them

More info on the sleeves here:

You can get the placards already printed from the SSA at www.ssa.org go to
SSA Store, Accessories and scroll down to Cockpit Symbol Decal.

I just scanned the images from my ASW-20 manual and used my p-Touch
printer to print them on laminated labels. Cheep, quick and easy to
replace when they look ratty.

The SSA store has a decal sheet of these symbols for $1.

These are great. Thanks!

Try laminating them with clear shelving laminate from Home Depot and use
thin double stick carpet tape on the back. If you want to make placards for
your panel, I have a template here: http://www.mymedtrans.com/personal.htm

Depending on the glider you may find that safety pins are a much
simpler and less expensive solution.
