Disk vs Drum on Trailer by
Tony[_5_]
I'm sure RAS has an opinion. I'm going to be putting brakes on my
trailer. I'll be adding a Flexride axle and I can either buy just the
axle and buy drum brakes to fit it or i can get it shipped with Disk
Brakes installed. Thoughts?

SC Nationals Day 8 Report by
Frank[_12_]
Well, we finally had a good day - maybe 3/4 of a full Parowan day -
great lift, but very few clouds. Apparently the temps got a few
degrees higher today, and the winds were fairly light out of the
south. The task advisors knew we didn't want to go very far south,
and we *definitely* did not want...

SC Nationals Day 7 Report and SPOT maps by
Frank[_12_]
Yesterday was groundhog day at Parowan - same as yesterday except
weaker and fewer clouds. Winds light out of the west, which is
supposed to be a better deal for Parowan, but not this time. Working
band in the 13-15 range, rather than the 17+ from yesterday, but again
not too much problems going...

SC Nats Day 5 quick report by
Frank[_12_]
The task today was a MAT with a required last turnpoint about 15 miles
to the north. Did I tell you I HATE MAT tasks? The weather was windy
(20kt + out of the southwest) with some clouds in the north of the
task area.
As it turned out, the day was sharply divided into a REALLY GOOD first
half...

Barbed Wire? by
GARY BOGGS
Our local port authority just installed a barbed wire fence along the
road at the east end of our airport. The fence is approximately 300ft
from the end of the runway. I can understand them putting up a chain
link fence, but a barbed wire fence is an extreme hazard and should be
illegal. Does...

DYI Blanik L-13 cushion by
Bart[_4_]
All,
Having sat on the famous steel bar for much too long, I decided to
make a seat cushion for the front cockpit of our club Blanik L-13.
I am planning to use plywood as a base and 1'' CONFOR foam at the top
layer.
At the lowest point, the foam will be glued directly to the plywood.
In the front...

trailer wheels won't turn by
chris
I have an older Komet trailer with newer axel. I parked the trailer
about 2 months ago and it was working fine at the time. Now the
wheels are immobile. I even tried to pull it with my car and the
wheels just dragged across the pavement.
In the dark of night I could not figure out if somehow...

Zero to Hero in one flight by
Tony[_5_]
Back in the good old days the Diamond Goal did not have to be a closed
course. Did anyone ever go from no badges whatsoever and do a +5 hr
declared 500+km straight distance flight along with a 5000 meter
altitude gain to claim Silver, Gold, and all 3 diamonds on the same
flight?

What Good is a Standalone Borgelt B57? GPS? by
ContestID67[_2_]
A friend bought a glider. It came with a Borgelt B57 in a box (not in
the glider). There is a Borgelt B50 vario still in the glider. From
what I read the B57 must have a B50 to function. Thus the B57 by
itself is useless. Right?
Also, I read in the manual about "GPS" but there are next to...
