Was wondering if anyone could provide the water ballast dump rates for an ASG-29? Need the data for my LX. Thanks in advance.

What file formats are supported. I've been able to figure out a few by trial and error but wonder which ones work best. I entered .cup format waypoints which show up on the map but they do not have any labels.

I'm cleaning out the garage and it's time to let my Soaring magazine collection go. It's complete from 1960 with a few issues from 1959. They are all in good condition with some of the early years in binders. I already offered them to the SW Soaring Museum, but they have way too many now. The...

First trip to Nephi coming up. I normally sleep in my van at the airport for contests (Uvalde being the exception). Possible at Nephi? Access to a shower is the question. I have a motel room booked but wanted to explore options. Chip Bearden

Whats everyone's favorite backup gps (if you fly with one). It occurred to me that my Naviter and LK are fairly unstable and it would be wise to carry a backup... Garmin 96 or garmin 195 are cheap, not sure about their power consumption.

Annoying... It's been years... Common!

Hi, I am flying a certified Discus b in the US. I am looking for ideas on what kind of oxygen cylinder I can install in my ship. Ideally, I would not like to replace the existing mount. Unfortunately Mountain High systems don't fit. Does anybody in the US have experience with this kind of mount...

While is does not apply to gliders, well maybe motor gliders?, the FAA has started offering a rebate to folks single engine aircraft when they install appropriate equipment. Better then a sharp stick in the eye! Ron Gleason

I'm sure a few people here have practiced it... but I really need to know: Has it ever actually happened? I mean, has there ever been a bona fide certified, verified example of both release hooks failing in flight? The glider can't release, the glider gives the signal, the tow plane can't...

Understand there is a new rigging aid created to help roll the ASG-32 Mi inner wing panels out of the trailer before the wing panel goes into a wing rigger. If you have a chance to witness this, please make a video of it operating and post it on YouTube. Anything to not be down with a bad back!

Hello, would anyone have advice on what to do to repair long cracks on a blue-tinted canopy ? I am sort of good at producing bubble-less repairs on regular plexi and wonder if there is a secret recipe or procedure to tint Acrifix TIA, gliderpilotGR

This is from early March, so it's likely old news to some here, but in a new policy letter the FAA has eased the requirement for a separate STC for every model of aircraft. This should have happened years ago! New FAA Policy: http://tinyurl.com/FAA-ADSB-Policy News Article:...

It appears the Boomerang Trophy location hasn't been updated in a while. Does anyone have the current location for the BRSS Boomerang? Linwood 7B Knoxville...

On tow the this weekend I noticed my transponder display was blank. It was lit (Or Backlit) but no 1202. The display may have been in direct sunlight for a few moments (Just a few, I am very careful about this)before launch. After landing I cycled the TX a few times and got a blank backlit display...

Friends: I am using the Flarm Core unit with output to an LX Flarmview. All functions work properly except that at some indeterminate point in time the unit lost capability to download a flight. I connect a USB drive, the Flarmview blinks at me as in a normal start up, but no last flight download...

I have owned my glider for nearly 4 years and it seems that I still find new things out about it. Its a Ventus B and has a L-Nav flight computer that I use as a backup to my Oudie. I went to test my gear up switch the other day and it didn't make any sound.. Now I always thought the gear up switch...

Have a LX9070 and a PowerFlarm brick. The PF is turning on can see the red light when new software was loaded and can see a green light when it is on.. There are connections from Flarm to the LX9070 they appear solid, but when I go to the setup page on the LX9070, Hardware then Flarm all I see is...

Looking for one of these units in known working condition. Please PM me if you have one which FLARM had rendered redundant, etc. paul (at) paulvillinski (dot) com. Thanks--
