Some of my flap/aileron hinges on my Mini Nimbus look very damp and brown. I think this is mostly the old brown grease "weeping", but I would like to check and clean up just to be sure as they look pretty bad. The outer seals haven't been replaced for a few years anyway. All surfaces have...

New glider on the way. Would like objective opinions from pilots who have flown with both ClearNav and LXNav and spent enough time to make an honest, educated evaluation. Let me preface this with the information that I have flown with ClearNav since being an early adopter. Both appear to have...

I just found out that due to a short runway at Seminole a decision was made to restrict the weight of each glider to 1150 lb. Supposedly the decision was made after consultation with pilots, not sure with whom. I would love to know who thought that it was a great idea. This leaves gliders with...

Hi all, I'm doing some research for our club. I'm trying to investigate what options are available for 'inexpensive' portable IGC accepted data recorders. Our club would use them for SSA badges and OLC competitions. We would like them to be portable so we can use them in different club ships,...

Dear all, has anybody any ideas how to feed GPS nmea input to a Zander computer? I have both an SR940 and a ZS1 available, but since yesterday no more GP941 logger (security seal failed, no GPS data on the computer). I know the 940 and the ZS1 require a special protocol/format for the GPS input...

How do current certified loggers determine altitude? Being some are plumbed to external pitot/static and some are cockpit pressure only, what differences are expected? Does your mechanical altimeter (especially 57mm size) read close to your "glide caculator" altitude? Are loggers solely...

I have 2 different Dittel FSG 2T radios with the same problem: The multifunction control on the front lower right (it is both a rotary knob and a push button) has become loose and hypersensitive. The radio changes frequency with the slightest touch. Anybody else have this problem? Or a solution for...

Some see EASA as the bête noire for gliding but many don’t shine a light on the IGC and costs of collaborating with that organisation. The outcome of yesterday’s plenary meeting just underlines how far from reality this organisation has become. An objective of the FAI Gliding Commission...
