Has anyone got a good price in the UK for 1200 metres of Dymeena? Basil

I personally want to know when a new product comes out for our sport. There are not that many new products that come out annually. I read this forum more than any other sailplane website out there and if I am thinking about buying a $4000.00 dollar flight computer then I want to know if there is...

Rest Day today, we have had 4 good days with 4-5 hrs in the cockpit and the next 4 days look good with the forecast for Wednesday predicting the hottest temps since we have been here of 93 degrees.

Hi, Issue 2/05 of Free Flight has a cool photo of a hangar full of vintage gliders on Page 20. http://www.wgc.mb.ca/sac/freeflight/05_02.pdf Do you know of any other pictures of well-packed hangars on the net? Ciao, MM

Pilots depend on simple, quickly applied remedies to any loss of control. Since we are not always afforded the luxury of examination, analysis, and consideration of options as a preamble to action, any flight condition where these simple rules of recovery do not work demands closer examination and...

We are still looking for a serviceable L-23 fuselage. We have good wings and tail feathers. Roy Bourgeois, President Greater Boston Soaring Club 4 Dix Street Worcester MA 01609

In researching the available 'Net-data on the SGS 1-36, I've noticed that of the 44 serial numbers in this model's production run, there is FAA, NTSB, or Canadian registration database info on all except #13. Interestingly (perhaps), current FAA registration info for all Schweizer gliders...

Anyone have any info re contest results or whether or not they have flown the past 2 days? The only thing that I can find is a report from Charlie Lite on the Region 8 site from 2 days ago. Nothing more on the SSA site or their local sites that I can find either. Casey Lenox KC Phoenix

All or parts. Finnished or kit. I intend to design and build new wings for this type. The poor choice of airfoil on these rendered them almost unflyable. I am in Chattanooga area.

Hi, LX Navigation will soon begin shipping the new LX7007 Pro IGC flight computer. I expect the first units to arrive sometime in July. The LX7007 Pro IGC is the newest version of what was previously the LX7000 Pro IGC. The new version offers a faster processor, more memory (I think) for...

Anyone have a link to this video? The links on various websites (Cumulus, OzPilots) don't seem to work currently. There is an acro video available but that is not the one I'm looking for. Casey Lenox KC Phoenix

Good day all I am looking to see some SF-25 trailor pictures to get me started to modify an old Schweiser trailer. Many thanks and mostly fly safely. Andr=E9

In the May 2005 issue of Flying magazine (yes, I am behind in my reading) there is an excellent article by Bruce Landsberg in the SafetyPilot column. It is titled "Death in the Afternoon." In the article Bruce talks about bullfighting, airshows, auto racing, Roman gladiators, and others as...

Our club is fortunate enough to have a winch, and a large number of ground launch endorsed pilots. We use a steel cable and encounter some kinking and twisting at the glider end of the setup. Last weekend we installed a swivel in line before the cg hook and were initially pleased with the first...
