Is anybody else having noise issues when the Oudie is hard wired to ships power. I know two aircraft that have the squelch turned on to try to drown out the noise on the radio. I believe it is from the Oudie while it is being charged. I recently added the Oudie to the aircraft and now the radio...

20 year old strong 303 parachute for an equivelent softie so i may trade it in and get a $300 discount on a new softie. Jim

Here is my configuration: PowerFlarm brick and Trig T22 mod S transponder. PowerFlarm configured with the transponder code to disregard it. I get constant notifications of my own transponder; yesterday probably 100 times, not kidding. I will have to unplug LX9000 from the PowerFlarm as it is not...

I have been following multiple threads over time discussing how to get more pilots to become competition pilots. I had the pleasure of flying in the Region 10 North contest. The contest is specifically advertised to be "beginner friendly" and has 2 competition classes - Club and Low...

All - There's been some recent discussion on training XC pilots; and there was also a little bit of feedback in the Nephi thread about XC learning/mentoring.. So I wanted to share info about an event that our Region has been doing to encourage XC flying. Hopefully it sparks someone's interest...

I am in need of a Winter 57mm ASI (0 - 160 kts.)Not enough room in the panel so have to take out the 80mm.

I have an Ilec SB7 (same size as the SC7 but older) installed in a club glider. I'd like to get a blank MacCready disk to use on it (I'll build the numbers for the glider to mark on the disk). If you don't have a blank disk, how about something like a standard Libell disk that you have laying...

More on the nationals later in this post, let's give a quick update on how our OLC/XC event that ended a little over a week ago went. :) We had 65+ gliders show up from all over the USA and Canada and wow did we have fun! We flew over 100,000km during the week's time (that is 2.5 times around the...

Not to be confused with the Soaring Hall of Fame for which nominations were just requested... Though some FLARM installations perhaps deserve nominations there too! I've recently received a lot of requests for the FLARM Antenna Hall of Shame advice, but sadly the original web page got trashed. Urs...

Flarm have updated their DLL file from version 1.5.1 to 1.5.3. This new version is now available for download from the GFAC and IGC web sites. DLL stands for "Dynamic Link Library" and is a file that links with other programs, in this case the IGC-Shell program for checking the electronic...

Just as described. Leaves Tuesday of next week. Driver also continues on to Afghanistan from Mayrland, could possibly get U.S.A.F. to ship. :-) -Mitch

Does anybody have a manufacturer issued, English language POH for a DG500 Elan Trainer which I could copy? Thanks, Uli

Many of the larger clubs in the UK have a two seat, touring motor glider which is used for navigation and off field landing training, pattern practice, particularly practice at dealing with patterns started too low or in the wrong place and PRACTICE LAUNCH FAILURES, PARTICULARLY THOSE REQUIRING...

Can anybody give me guidance with a problem I have in See You. I cant seem to get Andrej to respond. I have the latest version of See you 6.15. I cannot seem to get the vector map display or the satellite map to come up in the 3D view. I get a picture of the glider and the trace over a tan...

Hi guys, I'm trying to get my new KRT2 radion to function. I bought an adapter with it to simply plug in my old ATR720 wiring. All seemed well, except there was no sound coming off the speakers on receive (or when opening up squelch). We then tried using the original wiring loom, rewiring...

Was told it worked...

Can anyone give me some pointers on how to research the FAA database to find out if a glider has a standard airworthiness certificate or must be registered in the experimental category? Thanks, Uli

Peter, I've been lurking here and seriously considering where I stand with your proposal of combining STD and CLUB class at the Nationals. Initially, I favored having STDs join with 15M since I fly a very competitive Discus 2A which can do well as demonstrated this year by myself at Montague. I...
