I bought them, but not sure how to install them (position, back plate...etc) Anyone got a new trailer out there can send a picture? J4

I'm a newer pilot, recently solo. I purchased a Russian AC-4C with TRIG transponder already installed. I know I can purchase a Power FLARM for around $1,500 and have it display FLARM and ADS-B traffic on my Tablet with XCSoar. Is there a way to have the ADS-B and other traffic appear on the...

This topic has been discussed before but should be revisited. If the gliding community was brought within the umbrella organization of private pilots (ie., AOPA), a larger audience of potential new soaring pilots could be reached. For example, take a look at European flying monthly magazines....

The carpeting around the jack, the fold down door, and the cradle is finally falling apart. Does anyone have any recommendations for the type of carpet to use as a replacement and what type of glue to use to secure it? Thanks in advance.

Retired now and looking to purchase a motorized glider; weighing the pros and cons of self-launchers v sustainers. Two-placer is a priority, as I would like to take my wife. Single place acceptable as long as I can keep her happy sightseeing. We plan on extensive travelling, some to both...

Can anyone tell me if Flarm Net information is displayed on a Power Flarm portable directly? Reading the PF Portable manual implies that the ID information is displayed only on external devices, i.e., Butterfly, Flarm View, etc. I can't find any information that directly states that the PF...

It's been under discussion for several times, but I want to bring it up again. There have been several pro's and con's towards soaring in Olympics, but nobody argues that it'd rise the popularity of the sport. So it is important for soaring community. Therefore my question is following: Wich way...

Steve Bralla used to make and sell tools used to help align the wing spar pin bushings during assembly. He contacted me recently and said he had lost access to the machine shop. He graciously offered me the opportunity to take over the product line, and I am now in production. I will add them to my...

Prefer newer or recently refurbished with no problems. Will consider CVA model. I have a new 57mm white barreled Sage CV to trade or sell.

First I would like to wish all our fathers out there a Happy Fathers Day! With as much sadness as we have had in Orlando recently it is good to celebrate a very special day. The company sent out a press release on September 10, 2015 that announced the change in leadership at Seminole-Lake...

What handicap number would the RJ 5 ( 40 to 1 condition) have under the current system? Guesses / opinions?

Hi The thermal-assistant in my Oudie 2 is very helpfull when thermals are weak and disorganize. Now my Oudie 2 is not connected to my vario. But it could. My question is would it make a difference on the thermal-assistant if I connect the Oudie to my smart vario? For the purist out there I know all...
