.... with a better result than a previous recent thread ;-) Some notes about this: Average flights to this point in 2005: time 3:03 and distance 149 miles. I know that seems short but it includes things like BFR/rope-break practice and some demo rides. This business about 12 volts vs 14 volts is...

Dear Aviators, Know this, GentleFolk: THERE IS A MOTORGLIDER for homebuilder complete kit, at Oshkosh AirVenture. Yes indeed,

Yes I've read lots of posts about buying a first glider. My heart is set on an LS-4 since I'd like to stay in the roughly $30K US price range with a decent panel and trailer. BUT, what if I just don't want gelcoat because sooner or later it will have to be refinished and that doesn't make any...

Maybe this is old news, but it's new to me. Take a look at: http://bonesinmotion.com/corp/ This is a service for cell phones that tracks movement and allows the track log to be downloaded to a website for later viewing. It records pretty much everything that our gps flight recorders do. Of...

I started gliding 8 months ago and bought a Jantar Std.2 four months ago- I went from a Ka7 straight onto the Jantar no problem- Its very stable and it will fly hands off no problem when its trimmed at about 100 kph Doug S/Africa

Glider Pilot Net troubles, but at least its gettin my point across!

Anyone using the Themi system care to post their evaluation? * Do you find that you center quicker and more easily than without the Themi? * Does it meet with your expectations and was it worth the investment for you?

Here is what I did last week, following the infos from an A.I. (USA) I when to a Diving shop (which sells all the stuff for people who love to dress in latex and breathe underwater) they took my (steel) tank for hydro testing, it will (hopefully) come back with the new numbers stamped on the metal....

I hear most people pronounce Grob with a B on the end. But I dont think it is actually a B but rather an esset which is a letter in german that looks like a B but is pronounced as a hard S. So Grob should really be pronouced Gross.

so hurry up and make those thermal flight records! 8^) http://upi.com/NewsTrack/view.php?StoryID=20060207-041447-2345r

Does anyone out there in r.a.s. land know how to get a German Oxygen cylinder recertified to DOT specifications, and a place to get it done? I think it is out of date, and I got I with the glider, a DG800B. It appears to be in good shape-no dings or scratches. It has no DOT cert number on the neck,...

Brousing today's science news turned up a bit of research on the self-cleaning properties of titanium dioxide - a pigment used in 'superwhite' paints. From a Science Daily story on self-cleaning bathrooms: "The particles work by absorbing ultraviolet light below a certain wavelength, exciting...

Hi, What are the Pegase models (like 99 and 101) and what are the diference between them?

Hi, I've been flying multi-player online soaring contests in Condor over the last few months and it has been a lot of fun (and maybe even good training for the contest season). I'm wondering if there is interest in something like "Monday Night Glider Racing" like the LowLands Cup, except on a...

Has anyone modified the L-23 wingtip and put a rollerblade or other wheel on it? Factory wants $1900 per side for wheel equipped replacement tips, whivh IMO is a bit steep. -Tom

The Tasman V1000 has no moving parts. It is completely solid state. It requires no capacity flask. It has both visual and audio output along with a continuously displayed averager. The averager is the numerical output in the center of the display. There is an input on the back of the vario for...

Hi, I've been enjoying my SN10B for several years now and really love it. Recently I have been trying to use the Simple Glide Calculator (SGC) page to do side calculations during competitions (I used to do this with my LS4 prayer wheel but gave it to a pilot that had no computer at all - tried to...
