I am trying to install a Precision Vertical Card Compass in my LAK17at. My first attempt was in the instrument panel. That didn't work due to too much magnetic interference from the various speakers "under the hood". I then moved the installation to the top of the left side of the glare shield...

I recently heard from an owner having installed a MKIV yaw string on a FES (front, electric, self-launch/sustainer) equipped glider. He said that the MKIV was not indicating straight back centered in level flight, being slightly off to the side and deflection in turns was "not even, more sensitive...

Before heading out to the gliderport with tools in hand, does anyone have experience and comments about changing the Cobra trailer's compression brake gas strut? I have the new strut and welcome your guidance. Raul Boerner LS6

Hi, I'm struggling to elimitate water ballast leaks in a LS-7 after it has not been used for years. The wing valves seem to be one of the challenges. They leak regardless of the force applied to the actuator. I assume the valves are the same as in LS6c (and not available as spare part any...
