A Good landing is one you can swim away from. -T8

Hey all, If anyone can help, it would be hugely appreciated. I am looking for a newer standard class glider. I am 6'2" so some are just too tight. Tried a Discus 2B and was really crammed in. I hear the LS-8 has room or possibly the ASW-24 or 28? Thanks

The weather over the past 8-10 days has been phenomenal, and many pilots are posting some tremendous flights. Just a few mentions: - Paul Remde and copilot flew a 412-mile downwind dash landing in Missouri - Barry Jaeger and Dick Andrews yesterday flew the first-ever 750K triangle flown in MN, and...

Two of us flew a declared 750K mission out of Post Mills VT yesterday and I am now wondering if this was a first in the Eastern US. Previous 750s I know of in Eastern US were all flown using extended ridge runs. T8

From the latest SC3: b. Triangle Speed Course as in 3.1.5g with distances of 100, 300, 500, 750, 1250 km, or greater multiples of 500 km. A record may be claimed for the declared course and any shorter triangle in compliance with the applicable triangle geometry requirements in 3.1.8. They skip...

So far I like the beta test Navigator and look forward to tasks being added. Mine is connecting to my S10 via Bluetooth but I am not getting any Flarm targets displayed in Navigator. Anyone else seeing Flarm data coming in or is that on the wish list still for everyone?

https://soaramerica.wordpress.com/ I am surprised it wasn’t mentioned yet on RAS (as far as I can tell). Eric Carden is soaring his Mini LAK FES coast to coast! This is going to be interesting! Ramy

Hey all, in our (Proving Grounds - soaringtasks.com) continuing quest to make the transition from glider pilot to soaring pilot simple, we'd like to share another valuable resource/support for the over 20 SSA Chapters that have taken advantage of the "free setup" support provided by the SSA. Check...

It’s been 50 years now since I soloed in gliders at Black Forest, Co in 1971. I have logged over 5000 hours, mostly racing. Only flew one time last year due to Covid-19, but this year I found myself dreading the work involved with hooking up the trailer, driving an hour and a half, assembling,...

Does anybody know how to connect headphones (listen-only) to an Icom A5 handheld radio? It has a 3.5mm (1/8") jack, but the official thing to plug in there is an adapter for aviation headsets (including mic & PTT), and the plug of that adapter has 4 wires (tip & sleeve and 2 rings, looks like...

I'm having a lot of trouble hearing that 50% portion of radio calls that have marginal modulation, wind noise, mumbling speakers, etc. The other 50% come through load and clear. Tired of needing to close my side vent, crank the volume, and ask for a repeat. I doubt a campaign to get everyone's...

The light on my ICOM A14 charger was blinking orange/green and the charger was not charging the battery. I took the battery off the radio, used a pencil eraser to clean the electrical contacts on the battery - they looked fine to me by the way - and now the charger light no longer blinks and it...
