waxing newly painted sailplane by Brad[_2_]
I decided to paint my HP-24 myself. Overall it turned out nice and saved me a whole bunch of money, while not "perfect" it will do just fine. For a guy with a CostCo hoop house and a Harbor Freight conversion gun I'm pleased! My question is: how long should I wait to apply protective wax to...

Waxing your trailer(New Thread) by Pete Reinhart
All, It's been kinda quiet so that must mean soaring season is on it's threshold and every one is waiting with bated breath for it to actually start. While waiting you really must consider if you have done ALL of the maintenance items you need to attend to, so I propose two questions: 1. Have you...

Way Way Off Topic.... but I am confident the knowledge base in thisgroup can likely help... Computer related by Gary Emerson
Ok, normally this is soaring, but I know there are a lot of really capable computer folks who read this group and this item might actually help some of the other folks out there in the future as well. I have a Dell, set up with RAID 1. For those unaware, RAID 1 utilizes two hard drives. The...

Waypoint database by Don[_4_]
Within the last couple months, someone posted information about a website where you could identify an airport and then select a mileage radius and the program would produce a .txt listing of all the airports within that radius. I saved it but soon after my computer crashed and I can't find...

Waypoint/turnpoint files by [email protected]
Is there any rationality to the numbering of waypoints in files? Looking at some from the Turnpoint Exchange, I can't find any real order. If there's not a reason for a waypoint to be a specific number, I can shuffle and renumber at will, right??

ways to improve Club Social Time by [email protected]
My club is doing well and growing but our set up is not great for socializing. I think it would be nice if there were a few more excuses for people to hang out after flying to further build friendships. We just moved from another airport that had no good club house or club space other than the...

Wayteq 950 by Eurofighter
Hello guys! here is the problem: I have a V7 powered by a battery. The V7 supplies power to the LX COlibri logger and to the Wayteq 950 PDA running SeeYouMobile. The PDA gets the GPS signal from the Colibri through the V7. It's a very nice setup. During my last flight the battery died after about 3...

Wayteq x950 HD PNA by kirk.stant
Found this PNA on the K6 website. Nice specs and price, especially for those of us who already have a paid-for copy of SeeYouMobile on our PDAs and don't really want to pay for it again when moving up to an Oudie... Anybody have any experience with it? Seems almost identical to the Oudie, except...
