Replacing the stripes on a Cobra trailer by
Eric Greenwell
My 12 year old blue stripes turned brown several years ago, so I'm now
trying to install the new ones. It's not going well.

Cambridge FR, Sector OZ, Badges by
[email protected]
I understand the characteristics of the Sector OZ and the Cylinder OZ,
and for my badge flights, I would prefer to use the Sector OZ. An RAS

Filser ATR-500 by
Roger Fowler

for our club. Does anyone have any experience with
it, especially reliability and repair-wise?
I like the idea that it just plugs in where the previous
ATR-57 was. But I am concerned because the ATR-57
has to go back to the factory for repair...

Best paint or treatment for glare reduction? by
Frank[_1_]

of the instrument panel on my Ventus. In particular, the outline of
the forward vent shows up quite nicely in my forward view as a
reflection on the canopy. Almost like a gunsight - useful for locking
up on that glider...
