Hi, has anyone who uses an LX1600 worked out how to send the unit a polar curve, so that the netto display makes sense. The manual helpfully says 'use your PDA' but I have no idea what SW to use? Winpilot seems to do some stuff, but does not mention polars. Thanks Chris

Found this from someone claiming to be a Sheriff's deputy (and I have no reason to believe otherwise.) You have to hand it to the Hawker pilots, at least for getting the airplane on the ground with this kind of damage. ------ I am a Sheriff's Deputy in Carson City Nevada and on August 28 I...

Hey guys I was wondering if any of you could help answer these questions. What the proper speed to fly is when passing through lift without wanting to stop and work it. When trying to land in rough air should i go faster or slower? What effect will being underweight have on the control of my...

Recent discussions at my small club have centered around the cuurency requirements for commercial glider pilots. My understanding is that a pilot may not carry passengers unless they have had three take offs and landings within the previous ninety days in an aircraft of the same category, class and...

Well folks, I am out here in Warner Springs, enjoying Region 12 South. Today, as you can see on the SSA website, some folks put down some speeds. We even had the towpilots go up in a Grob twin, and end up with 1143 guest points. Ya, they had the best times of their life. When I came...

Late August-early September 2006, taking my wife on a secondo luna di miele (second honeymoon - doing this about every 3 years seems to work so I can go soar on weekends) into northern Italy (Lake Como, Castelrotto), then to Hungary - my mother's grandparents emigrated in the 1860's - (Budapest,...

Australia determined way back when the glider first appeared that the aft fuselage area had insufficient torsional strength and required strengthening. ( I suspect that they were a bunch of *******) looking through the articles that have appeared on the woodstock I see that it has been flown with...

Hi, I know there is a forum for this, but I am after other comments from pilots in this group who may have flown the aircraft or own one? /daveb
